Which Arctic cooler for Hercules 9800 Pro?

[Ugley_Matt]

Hopefully an easy question, which, if any of the arctic coolers will fit on a Hercules 9800 Pro, it came with copper ram sinks already on it but i would like it to run a bit cooler and quieter. Its the 128MB version if that makes a difference.

Yep this one will fit, Arctic Cooling Rev.2 ATI 1 (9700/9800) VGA Silencer (HS-002-AR). Amazing results with my 9700pro.

Yep thats the right one, i've got one on the same 9800 pro card - you will have to remove the chunk of copper from the behind the GPU to be able to use the back plate that comes with the VGA silencer. Easy enough to get off, just heat it up a bit (hairdryer or run the card for a while) and then twist and pull.

The ram sinks don't get in the way of the cooler either

Got some reasonable overclocks out of mine and it's much quieter
