QUOTE(HaHaNoCluE @ Aug 27 2007, 12:56 AM) but a lot of users juz worry that if the ori fan running at 80% rpm, after long run, it'll die... so some users they wanna try to add another fan as substitude to the ori fan in hope it might improve the temp n lower noise too... in fact yes, as tried, a 70mm fan with not much noise n not too high cfm does imrove by lowering the temp at some significant degree n better at load too... since most 8800 users r actually removing the cover of their stock hsf for cleaning purpose, so taking out the fans isn't much of a job either... hehehe... btw, it doesn't looks pretty...  anyway ....bro i like the way you treat your PC parts....and the graphic card....you know it was safe to load the card with temp 75-85C...but you still not satisfy ...keep modding....i was once did like you i know it's fun....after i water my 8800GTX i hard Vmod it as well.....  ....and still keep stare at the card try to find more mods to improve yet it prove nothing....hehee......this is how we love PC parts...

QUOTE(mADmAN @ Jul 25 2007, 07:36 PM) other than this method..there are some users in the 8800 thread who uses a PCI fan blower (like the evercool fox-2) whos reported results by just placing the fan 1 slot away from the GC. the shroud etc are left stock. even the vent holes are left open. im planning on trying this method when i have the chance. I am using this method and yes it does cool temperatures by a few C but gawd it's friggin noisy and makes my otherwise silent computer a whiny beast.
