I was just wondering if anyone would know if a 9800GTX stock heatsink would fit a 9800Gt.

I've looked at some pictures and to be honest i cant really work out if it would or not. But thought someone out there would know!

Thanks in advance!

Make sure to scour the PCB to make sure evrything is in the right place. What brand is your 9800GT?

Here is a standard 9800GTX PCB. Compare the Mem/VRM placement, plus you also have the plug location issue.
