426569 2006-02-03 01:46:00 I was thinking of purchasing this card:

"Gigabyte GV-NX78T256D-ZK Video Card, GeForce 7800 GT, 256MB, DDR3, PCIe-16, TV out, DVI, HDTV, SLI ready" for $582.12

It includes the Zalman VF700-AlCu VGA Heatpipe Cooler, which is normally $45 by itself. I know there's an issue regarding the VGA cooler blocking the adjacent slot.

Ascent shows this as the cheapest PCIe 7800 GT, even cheaper than an equivalent one, Gigabyte GV-NX78T256V-B, with what appears to be a cheaper VGA cooler.

Too good to be true?

426570 2006-02-03 01:56:00 Very... odd. Cool as if its all ok though.

What is usually next to a PCIe 16 slot? Another PCIe slot? I guess it wouldn't be a problem for most people then (are there any pcie cards apart from graphics??)
