Ello, I've been looking for a cooler for my 8800GTS. Everyone few minutes the fan will stop for 20-30 secs and temps go waaay up D: .Been looking for a new one anyway. Any recommendations? Was looking at vf1000+rhs88 cuz they look sexy but what do you guys recommend? (thanks in advance!)

Get a Thermaltake Duorb for the best combination of price and performance.

Zalman VF1000 if you want silent performance. Unfortunately it isn't worth it for nvidia G80 due to requiring RHS88 to be purchased separately.

Thermalright HR-03-Plus + a powerful fan if you want the absolute best performance.

I remember the day I dropped $400 for it
It seems like the duo-orb cost the same as the vf1000 o.o? What is the rhs88 and why do I need it? (Sorry I'm noob at graphics cooling)
I've never had luck with Artic Cooling besides mx-2. :/ .I've gotten around 8 heatsinks from them for friends and all have come with bent fins or missing retention hardware

RHS88 is heatsink for cooling the mosfets, ram and whatnot on nvidia G80 video cards (G80=8800GTX/Ultra and 8800GTS 320/640).

Yeah, I second the Accelero S1 Rev. 2. I have never read a bad review for it as they come with all hardware and accessories. Even if not, their support is pretty good in that you can get whatever is missing if you contact the,. It's also the best bang for the buck and offers phenomenal cooling - especially in a high airflow case like the HAF932.
