Physically, it should fit, but I don't think it will handle the heat. What you probably want is the HR-03, have one on a x1950xtx and it does are really good job.

The VF900 IS NOT good enough for the 8800GTS or 2900XT.

The HR-03 is one of the few air solutions that can handle the heat.

There is a slight difference in the mounting holes, but if you use small enough bolts/screws and/or drill out the heatsink holes a little, it should fit.
