Hello,
I have gotten a lot of great help here before and couldn't find what I was looking for so I thought I'd ask.
I have a GeForce 6800 GT card and am thinking of getting a new heatsink for it. The one that comes with the card hass a very loud fan, so I am looking for something quieter.
So my problem in searching on eBay or reading reviews, how can I tell if the heatsink/fan they are discussing will fit my card specifically. I know sometimes they will say THIS HEATSINK is for THESES cards, but sometimes they say 'the 6xxx series of cards' or something. Is there some layout pattern, like say the ATX specification for motherboards and cases?
Is there anyway I can determine what cards my heatsink will go with and what heatsinks I can replace it with?
Thanks,
ramzy
