Thats a little pricey. I'm buying from amazon and I need to buy something else worth at least $14.33 to get the free shipping.

Does amazon have any good thermal tape for being used on VRAM?

I have a Thermaright ultra 120 Xtreme 775 cooler and like their products better, but I haven't used their 8800gt cooler. I would check for opinions on their coolers before I made a purchase. JMO.

I used to have the accelero s1 on my 8800gt and it worked fine. However, the ramsinks are another story. I never used them, but I've heard that it's difficult to get them to stick.

Decent coolers aren't really all that cheap and for the price, it's almost worth spending a little more and buying another used 8800gt.

I don't really need another 8800GT...I just want my current one to run a little cooler. It actually heats up the ambient temperature of my office when it is running.
