For Zerotherm products, can join my bulk to get ur hands on some nice coolers
HEREakachester: Since u've been using it for awhile, how do u find it's performance compared to the stock or any others like Zalman ? Is it really that quiet ?
Well, i got both the GX810 and GX710 (owned by my cousin). Anyway, both come with slightly different features :
GX810 - With LED light, automatic fan controller. Very easy to assemble and come with both Xfire/SLI compatible mounting. What this means is that they include 2 different type of screws to mount the cooler. One is those big thumb screw for easy installation (Really very easy) and another type is smaller type so it wont block another card during SLI/Xfire.
GX710 - No LED, no automatic fan controller. Only one type of screw available and cant be switch to another direction. Must be only in one direction or else, it clashes with alot of stuff...
Both of them are really quite. Cant even hear any noise from the cooler itself. Looks wise, i am really satisfied (the reason i get the cooler ini the first place)..
Anyway, performance wise, to be honest, there is not much difference between the GX810 and GX710. Even though the GX810 is BIGGER than the GX710, the performance are roughly the same. Not sure about Zalman cause i drop that idea after i get the Zerotherm. If compared to stock Palit/Galaxy cooler, it almost make a drastic drop of 6 - 8c of the card. My 7300GT was idling at about 55c when on stock cooler and it went to 46 - 48c when i change to Zerotherm. Very nice cooler indeed.
Thats why i am saying its nice to see Zerotherm cooler on Elsa products. They are solid performers even though it might not look/known as one..
