It also cools about 4-5 degC more than the ColdCPU Cooler.
Like the review said you can't use the screws it comes with to turn the fan around to suck the air through the Heatsink. It does perform very well blowing on the Heatsink.
- So, it is possible to attach a Socket A Cooler to the card? I was also wondering, if (i know it would look ghetto) it would be possible to fasten down the heatsink with some plastic zip ties, through the various holes in the P?
Great, mods. Looks very promising. Just a last question (opinion). What are peoples thoughts about how much a performance gain would be with the increase of the GPU Speed? Seeing a lot of people expect the bottleneck of the card to be that. It'd be nice to see, if the core was bumped up to around 230-240, that an increase of around 500-1000 3DMarks . Wishfull thinking. -

The "Step" is facing down in the pictures towards the AGP slot contacts so there is about a 1mm strip on that side of the GPU that isn't coverd.
I tried the opposite direction but there are some components on the card that get in the way and are too tall to fit under the "Step"
Yes, it is time to trim the oversized 30 x 30mm RAM Heatsinks.
To attach the CoolJag I used Arctic Silver heatsink paste. I coated the GPU with a very thin uniform layer and then cleaned off a small area in each corner. I used super glue - well, it was my wife's fingernail version because it has a nice little brush for applying it in each of the corners. Then I applied pressure for about five minutes and let the thing sit for about 1/2 hour before installing the card.

Many thanks for the info!
I think I go the same way (but why is this CoolJag so expensive her in Germany?) when I get my Parhelia, but I try to replace the fan - I don't want a starting Boing or Airbus in my tower case.
