Hey Group, I am trying to decided which aftermarket VGA cooler to get for my GTX 460 sli setup. The Gelid looks really good, but I am about to purchase the Gigabyte 990fx-ud5, and it doesn't look like I can run SLI and a physx card. Any suggestions would be awesome. I am also looking at the Scythe Setsugen 2. Thanks!

Hey bud. I'm a bit confused about the new mobo comment and the SLI/physx card issue. Are you saying you are going to do SLI and you need a cooler for that, or are you saying you may not even do SLI because you may not be able to with the board you are looking at?

Basically, I think you just want VGA cooler recommendations, but I'm not sure if you are asking for something more than that also?
 
Basically what I am asking is if the new Gelid Icy vision rev2 is a two or three slot cooler. From what I have seen it looks like a three slot, but it boasts crossfire and SLI ready. So with the new mobo, Gigabyte 990fx-ud5, will this cooler only allow sli with no physx, or is the cooler a true two slot cooler, if not I will go with the Scythe for that reason. Thanks
