Ok so I have decided not to go with water cooling im just gonna get an si-97 hsf and use the fan from the areo 7 lite. Now im gonna have extra cash so I was wondering if I sholud get this X800PRO (http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=14-166-006&depa=1)
is this a good card.

Yeah I would go with the X800 Pro. I have a Built by ATI X800Pro at stock speeds and I love it. I use the latest cat drivers and I have no probs with it. If you have extra cash, go with the XT, 4 more pipelines and faster clock and mem speeds. I noticed you have a 300w psu, you may want to go higher. I think the X800pro uses like 75-80watts.

Yep that's a good card.

I agree with thlnk3r in that you may want to look at spending a couple bucks more for the x800xt. A 16-pipelined X800 is quite a bit better than a 12-pipelined one. LOL... as crazy as it may sound. Plus if it clocks up past XT-PE speeds, you'll have one hella a card.

Nevermind I wont have enought cash so im gonna get a 6600gt a 500watt power supply and the si-97. Yea my current power supply causes random reboots because its not very powerful and the 12v rail is like 11v.

that sucks, but the 6600 gt is a good solid card.

also, you might want to look around for the 850 series, they look sweet.

While this topic is open what are the stock speeds on a X800 Pro? I am thinking about getting one.
