Installation on a GeForce GTS 250
Contents
Before installing the cooler, you need to install the screws in the base, as you can check in Figure 9. There are four possible positions for the screws, so the cooler can be installed on virtually any video card.

In order to test the V4000, we installed it on our Zotac GeForce GTS 250, which you can check in Figure 10 with its stock cooler.
In Figure 11, you can see the nuts that hold the cooler, placed on the solder side of our video card. The cooler is heavy, and the addition of a backplate could help holding the cooler without forcing the printed circuit board.
In Figure 12, you can see the V4000 installed on our GeForce GTS 250. As we always do in our reviews, we didn’t install the heatsinks on the memory chips.
