Overview
Introducing Zalman's new flagship VGA cooler - the VF3000. The VF3000 come in two different versions, the VF3000A and the VF3000N. Both coolers feature five 6mm heatpipes to increase heat transfer from the GPU, a variety of heatsinks to cool the surrounding components, dual 92mm LED fans and a FANMATE2 to control the fan speed.
Details:
- Excellent performance for high end vga cards
- Also cools peripheral components
- Dual 92mm blue LED fans
- Five 6mm heatpipes for quick heat transfer
- Supplied with FANAMTE2 for fan speed control
The five heatpipes are connected to over 110 aluminium fins which are designed to cool high end ATI or Nvidia GPUs. The fins are then cooled buy two 92mm fans. These fans not only cool the GPU but also the surrounding components on the graphics card. This is done along with several heatsinks that are to be attached to certain components on the card. The A and N versions are supplied with specially designed heatsink to make this happen.
Compatibility
The VF3000A is for ATI graphics cards only, and has been specifically designed for the Radeon HD5830, HD5850 and HD5870 cards.
It is also important to note that once these coolers have been installed the adjacent PCI slot will be unusable due to the width of the cooler.
