I got an X800 with an IceQ fan, and other than being obnoxiously noisy, the fan died just after warranty. I went and grabbed a Zalman GPU cooler and my ears were blessed with silence after that.

Which Zalman cooler? I was thinking of getting one for my CPU and graphics card, but was always of put by price, so I went for a £200 water kit instead! lol :juggle:
