There are no air coolers, only WCing blocks.

EDIT: Well look at this, an air cooler: http://www.overclock.net/hardware-ne...ro-xtreme.html

Looks fantastic, the thread has more details, but it should be very quiet and effective.

Edit: Marin beat me to it.

I have two of them. I say have two of them instead of use two of them because, well... I can't get the damn things installed. It's impossible, I swear.... the x-braces on the back of the card absolutely REFUSE to go back on.

Arctic Cooling Accelero XTREME 4870x2

It's all you can do for HD4870x2 Air cooling.

I'd suggest building a water loop if you can. Either way, I've heard from some that installing is hard, I've heard from others it's not so bad, just takes some effort.

Either way, good luck with your efforts, maybe do a review here on OCN?
