Zalman have been offering quiet cooling solutions for years now, and the VF-700AlCu provides compatibility for most cards right through to the some of the latest and greatest offerings from nVidia (7900 series) and ATi (X1800 series). I wasn’t content to just comparing the VF-700AlCu to stock, I wanted to see how it stood up versus its bigger brother, the VF-900Cu. This cooler has more fins on the sink, and heat pipes connecting the fins to the sink base. Can the aluminium-copper hybrid hold up to the full copper VF-900?
