btw, EVERYONE is saying the manual doesn't tell you how to properly install the DuOrb to an 8800GT. I never installed a GPU heatsink before, so do any of you know how hard it is / any other guides on installing it?

Its VERY easy to install it. You take off the old cooler, clean off the thermalpaste, add your own, stick on the new one, screw it in, and BAM cooler temps.

I would say the Accelero, as I have one. I also have a 120mm Rosewill fan (3.50 or something at newegg) and I get <45*C after a few hours of gaming or benching at sig speeds.
Great cooler
