Hi all. I had a thread open having thought that i was going to get my 8800 gtx water cooled but i have to buy a new power supply because my present one isnt doing good.

So instead of a water block for my 8800 gtx i need some advice on an excellent air cooler for my gtx something that will cool the card down quite abit so any suggestions i would apreciate it.

Also im getting artic silver 5 thermal paste and i am planning to apply it to my 8800 gtx becaus the one i have on now it sooo bad! 75 idle temps i am just wondering can i take of the stock thermal pads from the card at stick as5 on where the pads where. Thanks for the help all

thanks zeno i came across a cooler made by artic cooling and it apparently dominates any cooler. ive seen some tests and i am going to go for the Arctic cooling Accelero Xtreme 8800 cooler will hopefully have by friday will post results

Good choice, hope it fit's in your case.

No neighbor, not a good idea.
8800GT yes
8800GTS > no

Too much heat
