hi.. i'm just bought a gc and it work perfectly with my rig.
but the problem is the heat..
idle load heat reach 70'c while max load reach over 95'c (especialy when i'm playing crysis with max setting) and will hang after couple minute playing it..
and its make me freakin out..

so, i was planning to replace the stock cooler with better vga coller..
what is the best vga coller within my budget around rm250.

i was planning to buy cooler master, water cooler but i didnt pretty sure yet..
wanna ask LY forumer opinion first coz many 'sifu' is here..

i use 8800 ultra gc

em..
my friend use table fan to cool up his 4870 and its look funny..
as the stock cooler failure to do its job..

i ask my friend either add some fan into the casing for better air flow and he said better buy new vga cooling.. increase the air flow to circulate internal air only reduce little bit of heat inside the cpu casing not the gc core..

yup, gonna find 1 today before my gc fried up..
tq for the support..

reminds me of my bro's biostar 7300gt. passive cooling, idle temp around 80+C, load temp can exceed 100C! dunno why it's super duper hot. tried various methods to improve airflow in the case, but i dont think it worked. after about a year or so using it, it died.
