Hey it actually has a missing heat-pipe, can see the grove for it as well XD

Nice catch panther!
Wonder why they removed one of the heatpipes, especially one of the middle. :confused:

See rather than saving the £1-2 of the heatpipe, they should of just charged 1-2 more.

Now it's not symmetrical and makes me a sad : [

No idea why the middle one either : /

Nice cooler. Sorry if I offtopic but I'd like to know any oppinion of sparkle and its reputation, I mean that brand is a little unknown to me but it seems to be good at newegg's feedback, what do you think guys?

They're a budget Nvidia brand, equivalent to ATI's Power Color and Diamond.

no vrm cooling! thats rediculous! why would any manu release a card with no vrm cooling
