Nice card, but the heatsink-less RAM scares me. Mine stock was up at 60C-80C with a heatsink. I wouldn't try to OC that at all, at least not the RAM>

Yeah, the cooler is the only thing I don't care for. I have plenty or RAM sinks at home. I just need to get a better air cooler.

I love mt TRad2. My temps stay idle at 30-40C and top load is around 60C. Great card for people immediately WCing or planning on getting an aftermarket heatsink.

The sad thing is I am probably going to sell my 8800GTS with maze4 and iandh sinks to pay for this card. I had planned to go back to air on GFX cooling. I wonder if another models refrence cooler will work. I have a better chance of finding one of those cheap.
