I guess you can try to change the thermal compound. But since 8800GT generates a lot of heat, so even apply to new TC, it won't be any significant decrease in the temperature... unless u change to a 3rd party cooler.

just my opinion. smile.gif

i want to try to change the thermal compound. but i duno whether it is worth it or not ler.

u see ah. my idle temp is 55C (67% fan speed) while load 70-75C or even higher (100%). I'm using Asus SmartDoctor to control the temperature at the moment and Rivatuner to monitor the temp.

I want to change to 3rd party cooler, but thinking of the voiding warranty thingy makes it not an option for me.

I google about it and what i found was this : http://www.hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1240142 (the stock compound looks sucky) lol

Actually not only 8800GT stock compound look suck, I believe all the GC's compound doesn't look nice at all...
For me, I think I'll just change to a 3rd party cooler...

the fan attached on colourful 8800GT is Zalman VF-1050 , and yes, it is noise but perform quite well. But more worse is, u can't adjust the fan speed as it is a 2 pin fan. sweat.gif

btw, I also facing the same problem like yours in RivaTurner. So, I forced to set two hotkeys to adjust my fan speed...
