If it helps, it died during that Natures Run or w/e in 3Dmark06, froze the entire computer, so I shut the power off, reset, saw it had artifacts in the BIOS, shut power off again and took the card out.

Then after I installed my 9600GT and got a drink (Roughly ten minutes to do both, its a cramped case..), it was still very hot.

The T-rad2 is great, I've used it but I find I like the Scythe Musashi I'm running now even better. Cools just as well while being quieter and more compact.

if you buy a t-rad2 from certain stores it comes with 2 thermalright fans already put on there

just note someone told me you can't do the stock plate trick to cool the VRMS if you buy the t-rad
