DJSickWithIt Posted July 15, 2006 Posted July 15, 2006 I want to get a chipset cooler to replace the "so called" poor stock cooler which has done ok so far but i just want the best for my baby. I notice alot of people say that the evercool is the best but it is hard for me to believe that the evercool is the best because it is so inexpensive. Is there a better chipset cooler for my board?

greatscott68 Posted July 15, 2006 Posted July 15, 2006 Lots of ppl, including myself, roll with the Evercool vc-re. It's a low-end VGA cooler that really shines as a chipset cooler. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
vipera Posted July 15, 2006 Posted July 15, 2006 Can you fit those VGA coolers under a video card in the top slot of the NF4 Ultra-D? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
greatscott68 Posted July 15, 2006 Posted July 15, 2006 Can you fit those VGA coolers under a video card in the top slot of the NF4 Ultra-D? It sits no higher than the stock DFI, so it's no problem. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ganiscol Posted July 15, 2006 Posted July 15, 2006 If moving your video card to the lower slot is an option, try the Zalman ZM NB-47J. Cheap, passive and gets the job done A-Ok for me. Keeps temperature below 45°C under any kind of load with an ambient temperature of 26°C - and I dont have jet turbines for case fans in my pretty silent rig. Some people bend the fins on this one to give room for certain vid cards in the upper slot, but theres no guarantee that it works. Really depends on the video card model.

UncleDavid218 Posted July 15, 2006 Posted July 15, 2006 Search around. There are probably upwards of 75 threads asking the same question. The Evercool VC-RE is hands down the best cooler to replace the noisy stock fan. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
