A ZM80A-HP and a ZM-NB32J do fit together on an Abit IC7/G board, the IS7/G had the same layout if I recall correctly, so it should fit those too. You can see some nice pics of them used together here: http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=259673 The Abit forums are at: http://fo...

Sapphire has a passively cooled 9600pro card that should be out any day now. It's listed at Newegg and some other stores for under $200. The performance of the card is about the same as your Ti4400, except that it's a DX9 card. You can see a photo of the card here: http://www.digit-life.com/archive....

Digit-life had some small details about this, I'll paste it here: "Zalman SystemNP Heatpipe HDD passive cooling reduces the HDD heating as well as noise and vibration. The package includes 4 aluminium plates, 10 coppoer tubes, 4 rubber dampers, ground wire and screws. The system is designed for usua...

Zalman has a new northbridge heatsink on their korean page, the ZM-NB47J. You can see it here: http://www.zalman.co.kr/product/zm-nb47j.htm Digit-life also has a new picture (and seems like they have a possible production model in testing) of the Sapphire Radeon 9600pro Ultimate (passive cooling). Y...

I kind of have the same problem here. I'm trying to choose a good looking case, but there aren't any "perfect" ones that would fit my needs. The closest at the moment is a Coolermaster ATC-710 which is basically a Chieftec chassis with a custom bezel. It looks good (I like cases that look as simple ...

The 9600 and 9600pro might be a bit slower than your ti4600 though. The 9600-series is built on 0.13 microns instead of 0.15 so it runs cooler. If you wait a while, Sapphire should be releasing a 9600pro ultimate edition with a Zalman heatsink (and a 9800pro ultimate, costs a lot though). The heatsi...

First of all, Radeon 9600 non-pro is already passively cooled, so you don't really need the ZM80A-HP, unless you plan on doing some heavy overclocking. I'm not completely sure, but I think you can use the ZM80A-HP with the normal Radeon 9600, it seems to have the mounting holes at least. Also if you...

Both are coming from Sapphire :) They're not linked yet, but if you go to the two URLs below, you can see their product pages already. The media page also has their boxes in larger resolution. http://www.sapphiretech.com/vga/9600proult.asp http://www.sapphiretech.com/vga/9800proult.asp No idea when ...

Oh, there's a wire transfer possibility? Then I might consider ordering a few Panaflos, would be a lot cheaper than the Papst fans too.

Seems like Dorothy takes only Paypal (creditcard) and cheque, both of which I'm not comfortable using, especially online. You can get those Papst fans for 8€ less from http://www.only4pro.com (In Finland that is). Only4pro also says they take suggestions on new products to add to their catalog, perh...

From what I have read the overall impression on the fan is that it's quite loud and may emit even more sound after some use. Abit apparently thinks so too, as there's a new revision of the IC7(G) boards coming, check this swedish site for a glimpse of what the new fan looks like: http://www.64bits.s...
