    Post fan on leadtek Gf2 pro- PLEASE HELP!

    ok here is a pic: http://www.newegg.com/app/Showimage....122-114-01.JPG

    i don't understand this fan placement, because it is not even on the chipset. I wanted to get a blue orb, but if i do, do i have to pry off that heatsink that is over the chipset? or do i just stick it on top. B/c, that stock fan is all part of the stock heatsink that is already on there... SO please help me, i'm a little confused

    Cool

    Leadtek always uses Whack heatsink/fan combos. But if you look at the little plastic rivets, they are right where they should be to plop on a Blorb.
    And don't forget some silver goo.

    but also, why is the stock fan off to the far right?

    You know.. I asked that question myself. But the Orb never really did much more than that crasy sink of theres. TenMax works good for the money. But I'm a little more hardcore than that. Try one of those small sized Alpha colors and use a very very diluted mixture of Artic Silver Epoxy as show on there website.
