Anyone who would put a Tennmax BGA cooler on a K7 (or ANY CPU above
100Mhz is an absolute fool.  Also, how would a CPU cooler go "on the
card"?

*I* read this post in the Nvidia group, which is a video card group.
I noticed it was crossposted to another video card group as well.

He was not talking about the CPU.

Yes, we are.  I have a Tennmax on mine and am seriously considering
modding a Gorb to fit.  Lord knows the GeForce DDR needs the cooling.
