    Cheap/Excellent Cooling for Banshee

    I finally found the right size fan for my Creative Labs Voodoo Banshee card. I went to Radio Shack and found that they sell a 486 fan/heatsink combo for about $10. I removed the little cheasy heat sink from the combo, and to behold, the screws on the fan line right up with the inner side of the outmost cooling fins on the original Banshee heatsink. Before, my Banshee could almost boil water (even at 100 mhz). Now it will overclock all the way to 125, and still is just slightly warm to the touch. What more could one want, Creative drivers with a 125 mhz Banshee.

    been using a radio shack fan on my cl tnt, o/c (125x110), card for over two months. you can save a few dollars by buying model #273-240.
    anyway they will both work.
