    3rd party coolers for 8800 series cards

    Hi all.

    I'm sure I'd seen on here a link or a pic of a 3rd party heatpipe cooler for the 8800 series - can anyone point me in the direction of one of these?

    Have just build a Core2Duo system with a 640mb 8800GTS, and am expecting some nasty noise from it. A heatpipe would be just lovely if available. Cheers!

    8800's are not to bad, try it first before you buy another cooler.

    Yeah, you guys are right - it's actually pretty quiet. I was really surprised. Thanks for the links NightshadowUK. Seems the Thermalright one still needs a fan - pretty pointless then.

    Does not actually need a fan - it depends on your case coolinf and air flow, but a good quiet fan will improve cooling performance.....
    Try to make each and every day the best it can be.
