Default 8800gt's Overheating
Ok so I got my new 8800gt's today, installation was a bit of a mess but now they're working fine.
Now i've come accross another problem, that being heat.
The graphic card that is at like the bottom. i.e.

| | <-----

Is touching over 80 Degrees. It's taking in hot air from the fan infront of it and keeping the heat high.

Can anyone suggest a decent aftermarket cooler please?
Thanks a lot

Accelero S1 - Reduced my GPU by about 15 degrees, without a fan.

Use RivaTuner 2.09 for stock cooling.

Better yet get an aftermarket cooler:

here's a great review of a ton of heatsinks for 8800GT.
In a nutshell: accelero + fan = best bang for buck
HR-03GT + fan = best possible cooling.
