...simply replacing the noisy original cooler comes with your VGA...

Technical benefits or arguments aside, I think anything that can help reduce noise is headed in the right direction.

*loud system noise is bad* :banghead:

Nothing wrong in naming it after a legendary swordsman.

It does when the product doesn't quite make the cut.

Oh noes.......that was the most brutal pun I've seen in a while.:roll:

I wonder how it would do with some REAL fans on it........
