Aerocase is different from other heatsink manufacturers. Their passive Condor VGA cooler is a product of Sheridan, Wyoming — not the part of the world you'd expect a massive VGA heatsink to be designed and built. The management team is all women, a fact that they are clearly proud of — it gets mentioned in the "about Aerocase" blurb that appears on their press releases. Sales are online only; each heatsink must be custom-ordered on Aerocase's web site. You specify which graphics card you have, whether or not you need a single-slot thickness, and whether the heatsink hangs above or below the card and Aerocase will send you a cooler customized to your specifications. With over a dozen variations, this kind of customization would be impossible with mass merchandizing as each version would require a separate product or model.
