This is basicly my idea of how to cool my voodoo2,
The red round this are copper pins.
The stripes are fins.
PLEAS NOTE that this thing is totally not accurate, but because it would take to much work to draw it preciously, I did not.
It just to give you an idea.

Okay great...but why? Voodoo 2 isn't going to overclock well to begin with, no matter how much you cool it (unless you do a serious voltage mod, in which case you'll most likely kill it). And where are you going to find such a cooler? You'll most likely have to make it yourself

If you want good cooling for your Voodoo2 get yourself a TennMax Stealth V2 Cooler. I used this cooling on my Voodoo2 and it worked GREAT!!

WTF......

I am making this cooler myself from scratch.
And trust me the Tennmax isn't so goos at all.
The reason that it performs so wel is because the Voodoo2 is not cooled. So you can not compare it with the 'standard' cooler.
And A voodoo2 overclocks very well, it is just a case of cooling.
A tenmax can bring you card to a 120mhz easy!!!!!!!!
If you cooled you case well, because the case has a major influence on the tenmax because it uses like my cooler air from inside of the case. How can we now if a voodoo2 is a good overclocker if we do not cool it good, we can't compare it with a radeon 9700 with a beautiful copper cooler that can gain 50mhz!!! NO SOMEONE HAS TO TRY THAT OUT.

And I am willing to do this, If my design is up and running a wil write an article about it.
This cooler is also a way to find out if it is possible to make a good DIY cooler.

And damn My design is gone I can't see it any more[:(].
Is it because of the size??????
Or is it just freewebs again[:(!].

I could never see the design and I didn't know you were trying to design your own cooling.

Don't be so damn nasty next time and post a "WTF" when someone is trying to help you. If you didn't like my suggestion you could have said "thanks but" blah blah

I'll remember your name and NEVER offer you help again!!!!!

well, all I have to say is good luck. It would cool quite well, but I sort of doubt you'll ever get it off the drawing board

Sorry I use WTF quite often.  Yes the reason that I sad WTF was because I wanted to say I was confused. That is how I use WTF.
If I wanted to insult you I would say STFU,and I have no reason to do so especially wen poeple try to help me. I don't no how the other people use WTF but I say it every time in my clan ( I play Mohaa ).
And for me it is ment I am confused.
