Default Aftermarket aircooler for 8800 GT (VoltMod)?

I want to volt mod my 8800 GT, i'm thinking on hr-03GT, Accelero S1 and DuOrb, but i think Accelero and DuOrb don't cool the Voltage regulators. I'm confused :S Anyone have a voltmodded 8800gt?

Your best option would be the Thermalright T-RAD2. It's an absolute beast, outperforming all of the above including the HR-03. It includes all the necessary heatsinks to cool the RAM/VRMs.

I used to have the accelero on my 8800gt, but I used Iandh ramsinks instead of the ones supplied with the cooler. I heard that the ones with the cooler were difficult to get to stay on and that they didn't hold on very well. I had the card volt modded and it ran fine until it died. I didn't do a good job soldering and it came undone, coming into contact with something else and killing it.

Since you are in spain, I'm sure it'd be hard to get some of the same ramsinks that I had. I use thermalright ram sinks on my current card.

hr-03GT includes RAM and VRM heatsinks? I can't get T-RAD on my country, and i think it's a littel expensive. I'm thinking on getting hr03gt if includes all heatsinks that i need.

Yup, the HR-03 includes everything you need including RAM and VRM heatsinks, fan clips and paste. The only thing you need to get yourself is a fan to mount on it. No worries if you can't get the T-RAD2, the HR-03 is a monster of a cooler by itself, you can even zip tie a 120mm fan to it for improved cooling performance.
