Cooler for 8800Ultra?

[krazyq]

I keep a spare PC around that has integrated video, or I have a small box of AGP and PCI video cards, for a rainy day. They really come in handy when you need them.

well my other pc is upstairs which isnt that bad really...

i just rather use my pc though...i guess ill have to look into buyin a cheap pci card or get one for a good deal.
Unless anyone wants to sell one to me....ill spend upto $40 bucks...
so pm me for deals if any available.

did the hr-03 have a 72mm fan rigged up to the heatsinks or no?

 

[krazyq]

i had a 92mm fan on mine...with about 52cfm and 2500rpm.

 

[Riznarf]

k, any fan recommendations? And you just zip-tie it on the heatsinks so that its sucking air away from the heatsinks or blowing it into them?

 

[Riznarf]

also, does anyone know idle/load temps for an 8800gts with an hr-03? The Zalman vf1000 gives idle/load on an 8800gts at 52/64 which seems pretty good to me...

Alright I just answered all of my own questions:

(and for anyone else that was interested here are some benchies

It appears the HR-03 w/92mm fan still wins out:

 

[krazyq]

hey riznarf... your one of the first ppl i know to triple post...stop doing that.
Just edit your previous post if you have anythign to add.

Apok,alex are some of the ppl i know who have the hr-03plus.
Apok has it on his gts and temps dropped about 30c with a fan and alex dropped the same with his gtx.
