Rating: - VGA cooler
The fan on my VGA card quit working and the manufacture could not replace it. I bought the VGA cooler to replace the fan and it has worked fine for over a year.
Rating: - Useless for an nVidia 8800GTS card
My temps before the insertion of this fan were 57c idle/67c load.
After insertion, with the switch set to "H" the temps were 57c idle/64c load.
In order to have the fan fit with the extender tube attached, the bottom clip had to be removed -- or else it wouldn't seat properly in the case. Pity there's no proper documentation to confirm things, so you just read it here. :) The clip can be effortlessly reattached as long as you don't break it off with force.

bought one of these babies at Staples, DID lower my temp (installed it directly below my 7600 xfx oven card and lowered temp by a measly 3C...but it sure does look pretty. Might return this and buy a replacement copper fan for the card for another 10 extra bucks and 10 extra min. install

My Dimension E520 case has a lot of room but this fan is just not designed well. It's to wide to fit in the PCI slot space. The fan presses up against the unused PCI Slots and doesn't fit in the screw slots to hold the hold the card in place. There is plenty of room on the other side of the fan so it's not a problems with the case. Vcool would be smart to resize the metal ends that hold the card in place. If the fan was off set more to one side it would fit no problem.
Rating: - VCooler: good or bad?
Beats me, I just got it yesterday but I'll update this review as time passes.
I have an HP and they seem to be prone to heat prostrate so I decided to get this yesterday, especially since last year the factory installed blower spent too much time kicking into emergency mode than I liked. This computer automatically turns the factory fan up to high when the air temperature reaches 72 degrees and it is loud. The Vcool I bought at Staples is only about one third as loud when turned up to high. ... Read More
