Final Thoughts and Rating |
After taking a long look and testing of Zalman VF3000N Video Card Cooler I will have to say that I am quite pleased with the way the cooler performed. It was able to handle all the heat that I could throw at it rather easily without any troubles. The noise level coming from the cooler does appear to be much less than the stock cooler and light weight is a huge plus in my book. On a personal note I am not a big fan of the “stick on” heatsinks, never have and never will, but they did seem to work well. My biggest fear is that during a move that one or more might fall off and create havoc when I go to start up the PC- but this is just my paranoia. For looks and performance well above the stock cooler I will have to give the Zalman VF3000N a huge thumbs up!
