i got a Zalman VCF VF900-CU VGA cooler for my sapphire hd 3850, everything went together nicely, considering the fact that zalman doesnt say if its supports the hd 3850 series or not, so i go to logged into windows to check my temps, its says 55c to 57c idle, lol my stock did a better job cooling even though it was a little noisy at 75% rpm. i live in canada, u would think being winter out, my temps show be alot lower like low 40's or something, they rest if my temps like cpu and mb are good cpu 28c idle mb 29c idle so i called up zalman support they told me to take the heatsink off then install it back on agian so i did using ac5 silicon, when i look at the temps agian, it showed only a few temps lower, wierd i've always heard good things about zalman products, im thinking i should just exchange it for something else like the arctic rev series
