hey guys,

im kinda wondering in circles at the moment so i need some help.
im going to be putting together a machine shortly and am having some difficulties deciding what to do.

machine will be a:

dual core 3ghz
aXeRamâ„¢ DDR2-1066 Gaming RAM Kit - Matched Pair Of 2x 2GB Modules
720w odin pwr supply
and the ati radeon HD 4870x2

so here my dilema,

from what ive heard that gcard get very hot which i want to avoid, im not a big fan of water cooling (never used it though), i move my pc around alot so the idea never appealed to me, i see alot of ppl saying that with this card the only way to keep it cool and quiet is to go with water cooling. is there a different route to take? also im looking at getting cooling that has a interface and controls to it.

any help will be much appreciated. thanks again.
 
thanks, i didnt knw about that and it looks good, i think ill definitly try get hold of that.
also as of like a few minutes ago im deciding to change my graphics card from the hd4870x2 to the 4890 but im getting 2 of those and crossfiring them, anyone have any feedback about that for me, is it a better move to make?
