I picked up a 6800 GT AGP (gainward)

And I wanted to know if this:
https://www.performance-pcs.com/air-cooling/v … cl-g0078-d.html

fits just pci express, or AGP also?

Also if it works really well to cool it, what do you think about me flashing the 6800 GT to a 6800 GT Ultra bios?

Original AGP and PCIe cards have identical mounting.

I picked up a 6800 GT AGP (gainward)

Gainward had decent cooler for 6800GT cards (red shroud with 2 fans).

I must be some kind of standard: the anonymous gangbanger of the 21st century.

Oh thank you very much Sir.

Now what do you think about putting that thermaltake cooler on it and flashing bios to an ultra?

Will I break it? hhehehe
