Post AC Accelero or TR HR-03+ for 8800GTX (G80)?

I tried OCing my card once before but stopped because the temps just were too high on stock settings.

I am finally working so I can afford a cooler. I was thinking about getting the Accelero and pairing it with a nice 120mm fan.

Which is better? comments/ideas/suggestions?

Thanks!
Peace

The Accelero comes with three 80mm fans, while the HR-03 Plus doesn't have any. However with the HR-03 Plus you can put a 92mm fan, or if you want you could put a 120mm as long as you attach it with plastic straps.

thats the accelero extreme, which costs around $50, the regular one is $19.99 @ newegg. tack on a fan, and it's cheaper than the HR-03.
