Well, i went to lowyat that day to search for this thermal paste and the price at Sri shocked me.I saw some AS5 at overclocker's united(if i dont remember the name wrongly) but didnt ask for the price as i was aiming for the zalman.There is a few places you can get the zalman in LYP but the cheapest i saw was at ALL IT and its still more expensive than what selling here in bulk.Too bad when i decided to get it from ALL IT, they were closed..darn..Will be going back sometime soon and get it..

Only manage to cool my gc [that u've sold to me earlier] a little better than the stock heatsink... Thinking of opening the case of the fan and put a better fan there, but don't know if i can do that or not... QUOTE 2) No FLAMING, from now on, starting now; no more flaming, Such as:- saying any brand sucks, this will end up getting a flame war between some other brand supporters, I don't want to see any of this around, If you would like to do so, PM each other to solve it in a appropriate manners. http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?act=SR&f=5 |

I'm going to JB later on and thinking of grabbing this GPU Cooler:even running 3D application will push the heat to quite high.... PC Cooler SVC-737CU VGA Cooler     Hope it'll work much better than the Arctic Silencer X2...  What do you think about it Doom? Will it perform better than the X2? |

QUOTE(akachester @ Nov 23 2006, 03:41 PM) Actually how good does the PC Cooler products perform compared to the Zalman series since they are so much alike? One of VR-Zone forumers [from sg] have compared the performance of Zalman Fatality FS-V7 [VGA Cooler] and PC cooler FS-V7 Look alike heatsink [didn't remember the model number ] and what he got is only 1degress hotter than FS-V7... [playing games] while in idle, both heatsink performance are just the same...I'll try to look for that review later and post it here... With a price difference of the PC Cooler VGA cooler cheaper in RM50 - RM70, 1 degrees celcius while playing games wouldn't hurt right?  |
