Question Calling out Zalman VF900 & FC-ZV9 owners!

Just curious to those of you that have these coolers on your 8800 series cards, what are you average temps like? Ever since I installed mine and cures, it seems to idle around 48C and I just don't think that is right. I think it should be way cooler considering how superior this cooler is from stock. My CPU idles in the low 90F so I would think my GPU should be in that area as well. I don't think I'm putting on too much thermal paste, but I think I'm going to try a remount for the 3rd time later when I get home. If I can't get this biotch to cool down, I'm going to get me that new Silver DuOrb that is coming out soon.
