axp113 · 02-14-2006, 03:20 PM

i have the CHAINTECH Geforce FX5500 AGP graphics card and i am looking to OC it and need a good cooler. In addition to ramsinks that i may get, what kind of vga cooler do you reccomend?

the only one that i could find, Vantec Iceberq 5 VGA Cooler.

thanks.

I don't think this is a very good invesment. You'll be spending half of the card's value over again just for a cooler. This is an inefficient manner of spending. I'd suggest upgrading your card instead.

i know my card is fairly out of date, but until the 7800 prices drop i want to squeeze as much juice out of my 5500 as possible.
