I decided for going to water on my system and got a CM V8 cooler for the i7. Now is there any air coolers for the GTX285 that would work right in tri SLI thats better than the stock?

I think it will be tough to find air cooling that is compatible with tri-SLI. I'm going to go with this when I buy my 2nd 260:

I will be able to run standard SLI with the PCI-e layout of my board but I don't think I'd have any such luck with tri-SLI. I think your best bet would be to go with water. I doubt anything else will fit/be more effective than stock.
