Retail Geforce 6600GT Exploration

Leadtek

The Leadtek card uses a circular HSF. They have a larger circumference than the Galaxy card, so it is still possible to tilt cooling solution, but Leadtek have added a pad around the silicon that helps to stabilize the heatsink. While support on the edges of the HSF would have been perfectly stable, this design is much improved over some of the other solutions that we've seen.

As far as being quiet, no shroud helped. This was also one of the coolest cards that we tested, and achieved a very high overclock. Overall, the Winfast PX6600 GT TDH is a very nice implementation of a Geforce 6600 GT.
