Bought an 8800GS on ebay with a fan that only seems to work at 100,000% speed, meaning it sounds awful considering my computer is basically inaudible over the background noise in my room, I did try to replace the fan with an old 6800 based quadro fan, but it is a slightly different size, and I can't figure out a way of fixing it in properly.
So I need to find a cheap, reasonably quiet heatsink, or even waterblock for the 8800gs, any suggestions?

Have you had a good look at the fan that is fitted to it, I've found in the past that little fans like this in not so well looked after machines tend to get a load of fluff around the spindle and it make it hard for them to turn. Usually you can clean them and give it a little bit of wd40 to get them working again.
