SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!

I need to know (quickly) if i could use a Socket370 Pentium HSF combo on my Voodoo5, and would it cool it a lot better?!?!?

yep.. but doesn't the voodoo 5 have 2 gpus? then you'd need two... just check beforehand on the card to make sure that the hsf fits properly.. you might have to file the hsf in places to make it fit over caps or other smds. also, make sure the fan cables are long enough to get to fan headers if they're 3 pin. to attach it, i'm not sure if the v5 has little mounting holes, but if not, then i'd use good thermal epoxy, like artic silver epoxy. try this online store for that.

There are cardcoolers from Orb "Blue Orb", specially made for videocards etc.
