Cooler Master CoolViva Pro Vga Cooler Review
Posted on 2007-04-18 12:03:56 by Thomas De MaesschalckWell, it’s obvious I can’t go forward from here. I have to go back and try something different. For one, I had to remove the two memory heat sinks that were in the way for sure. That is quite counter-productive, don’t you think? With the heat sinks removed from the memory chips, it will not be possible to overclock the memory as high as if they had coolers on them. Secondly, I took the foam tape off the vga card and applied it to the cooler instead, making sure it was around the raised surface that made contact with my vga chip. And finally, after several trial and errors, I discovered that I had to reinstall the “A” clips with 4 studs to get anything to line up with the holes in my card. Once I had all of that sorted out, it was a matter of placing the insulating washers over the studs as they protruded through my card, and then securing the cooler on with the included spring nuts. Now you see why I said earlier that the instructions were useless. Well, unless you ran out of paper in the outhouse.
