Thermalright HR-03 is the king at the moment. Runner up is the Arctic Cooling Accelero X2.
Make sure you check manuf. websites to confirm compatibility. I doubt it should be a problem.

wow that looks interesting - I think I'm going to RMA the VF900 and get that - the Zalman just doesn't cut it for me

The Zalmans will sometimes not work for ATI X1900+ series cards where the heat overwhelms the cooler. Nvidia cards on the other hand love them.
BUT, make sure that the fan is running on 100% |
