Does anyone know if this:ARCTIC COOLING Accelero S2 VGA Cooler will fit my Saphire Radeon 4830-and if so will i still have enough room to crossfire ? Thank you in advance-

i went through 177 reviews on newegg. not one mention of anyone with a 48xx videocard. lots of talk about 9600s and 3850s and such. no 48xx. im also having trouble picturing a passive cooler on a 48xx.

hope that helps.

*puff pass*

*edit* HEY im a toms REGULAR! hurray!

cheers! seems you can passively cool the 48xx.

go for it! just make sure you get the revision 2.

hopefully it will leave me enough room to crossfire

i wonder if the passive cooling would overheat with 2 passively cooled 48xx cards close to eachother. assuming they fit.
