Are you looking at that for the price, or for overclocking?

OK, WOW quick replies... Since my card is an XT, doesent that mean Im not gonna be able to get huge overclocking gains anyways, at least without water cooling? (which is too expensive and impractical for my situation...) I plan on buying some other fans for my case as well, so I thought getting the heat out of my vid. card ram and GPU would be good to do while Im at it. That Logysis Edge fan kit looks quite cool (no pun intended):

No with an XT you should be able to get a nice overclock with it, as long as you have the right drivers for it. Omega drivers.
