Zalman have taken all their expertise in heatsink design to manufacture something special. As you can see from the images below the heatsink looks similar to the very popular CNPS7000B Super Flower CPU Cooler. The major difference between the VF700 and the CNPS7000B is that the radial arrangement of the VF700 is split into two half-moons - one smaller than the other. This approach, combined with the use of a smaller fan, ensures no clearance issues when fitted to the graphics card. The airflow from the fan is spread very evenly across all fins and adjacent components, to give cooling unmatched by any other design. Also included are eight RAM heatsinks (anodised blue), to capitalise on the extra airflow generated by the fan.

Compatibility
The VF700 is compatible with AGP and PCI-E (PCI Express) graphics cards which have pushpin holes around the GPU. Unfortunately it is not compatible with Matrox or nVidia's PCX series graphics cards. If you own a Matrox card please consider using the ZM80D-HP. nVidia PCX owners, we are sorry to say we do not have a solution for that particular series of graphics card. It is also incompatible with nVidia's 7800 GS AGP cards, the 7800 PCI-E remains fully compatible.
PLEASE NOTE: The VF700 is incompatible with graphics card that include a TV tuner, for example ATI's All-in-Wonder series.
For your convenience Zalman have produced a list of graphics cards for the VF700. You are urged to take a look at the following links for more information - Compatible VGA Cards : Incompatible VGA Cards.
We recommend the VF700 if you are intending to install it on the following graphics cards - nVidia FX5800 or above, nVidia 6800 and 7800 (all models), ATI 9800 (all models), ATI X800 (all models). If you have a graphics card with a lower specification than the ones mentioned it is recommended that you opt for the fanless ZM80D-HP!
