I am upgrading my system and getting rid of my watercooling, that means no more mcw55 on the eVGA 7800gtx... now i wanted to know what should i do when re applying the stock hsf? Throw some as5 on the core or ???? Also is there any decent cooler I could put on there, im not really looking to spend much since ive already dropped alot on the upgrade and am going to go with a dx10 card when they come out. THanks for the help.

That card has a good cooler, just use some AS5 on the core and the RAM. Might have to use thermal pads on the ram, depending on the clearance.

yeah i just realized its not even worth it to get an aftermarket aircooler since it wont even get higher then 490/1.27 on water.
