I dont particulaly want to go for water cooling at the moment as Im planning to build a full water cooled rig later this year, i just wondered how much difference a new cooler is going to make and whether its worth the £40 it will cost?

EDIT: IMO, I don't think it's worth it if your going to end up getting a new system soon anyways. It's not like the card is going to keel over and die at those temps.
