4.1GHz and counting...

If the Accelero S1 fits the 9800GTX, I'd highly recommend getting it. I switched my stock cooler on my 8600GT with the Accelero S1 and my load temps dropped by 10 C. And that's WITHOUT a fan!

Cool, well i'll give the HR-03 I have a go. Its worth a shot and i have loads of spare Ramsinks to use for it.
If it doesn't work i suppose i'll put the stock back on. Unless someone can confirm the Accelero S1 fits?

The Accelero Xtreme 9800 does fit though (It only fits on a 9800GTX actually) I can't find one for sale though

OOH that looks huge lol
Only other place i can find that stocks it is LambadaTech or whatever and they're all out too. Also only £26 there. After a bit of searching to find some way of converting Sone to dba, i've worked out: According to the Arctic cooling website Stock = 1.1sone Which is 30.2dBA aprox the AC 9800 = 0.7sone Which is 26.3dBA aprox Not that much better all in all but if this HR-03 i have ends up not fitting I shall definitely be having myself a one of these when they are in stock  .

OK I took the card out, prepped the HR-03, picked up my screwdriver... and wimped out lol.
Just thinking to myself, "wow, thats bigger then i remember. What if the GPU is a bit further along then i think. I might not have enough room." Also if it doesn't fit and i bugger up the thermal pads on the VRAM chips, i'm pretty much screwed. So until i can find some pics or proof someone else has got an old HR-03 onto a 9800GTX i'm leaving it for now
