    NV Silencer 5 (Rev. 2)

    I've seen a few with them on - never asked which model or whether it needed modding.

    I've got a GTX and a AC 5 rev 2 9bought for my Ultra) so 'd also be interested to know as well.

    Can we have some more details please? What would you suggest?

    I used to have a Zalman ALCU cooler - that was quiet, weighed a ton though

    They should work, i believe you just need to convert the power plug thing.

    One problem is that the 7800 has ram on both sides doesn't it?
