Cpu Air Cooler

[eid]

heh i was looking around for some parts when i found this thing...

it looks crazy :P and noone in my link croud is fond of overclocking and such...

the only problem i might forsee is that theres a PCI card there,

and i dont like the idea of having a card directly below my VGA..looks really tight...

I have 3 pci slots below the pcie and 3 pcix slots above the pcie..

i've got a Creative X-FI in the 2nd slot and  Leadtek Expert TV capture card in the 3rd..

for reference heres how it looks http://img.clubic.com/photo/00145126.jpg

by the way the VGA is a sapphire X1950pro-pcie card with the stock cooler at the moment..

any ideas? i intended to change the vga cooler sometime, but by the looks i wont be able to..?

im thinking of just running the cooler without the pci card,

but im not sure if it'l like/run without it, looks like an automatic speed controller of sorts..

That cooler definitely cuts the mustard. I guess it should work without the card aswell.

then add something like this

shouldnt be too far away from the original price.This system dont take up that much space.
