gdonovan YaBB Administrator Offline Infernal Collector Posts: 2361	3dfx "fan" topic 20.05.05 at 19:57:58 I'll start this thread... with some long awaited pictures. You are looking at the VERY FIRST V5-6000 ever fitted with this heatsink according to the Hankster. It is utter overkill and with the card fully loaded only hits 93-94F. I need to make up another backplate with the correct round hole, it is on the to-do list.

As an aside- The "3700" card the heatsink is attached too is the first V6K that Hank developed the PCI rework on. WooT!

The heatsink does not come in contact with the ram chips.

Whaaa Zaaa Time to Party it's time for a 3dfx Party, man if just others just could see this, really awersome 8)

Maybe it is good that the ram doesn't make contact with the cooler, otherwise the heat from which is distracted from the 4 VSA-100's will be in the way of the heatflow of the Ram's Heat, and thereon no sufficiant heat releaf.
