hey everyone,
I was wondering if overclocking my ti 4200 is possible with the motherboard I have now.. I have a dell, and the motherboard is an Intel D815EEA vAAA10383-405. If it is possible, is the fan that it came with sufficient for overclocking or do I need to purchase one? If so, which is the best fan to use and where can I get it? thanks.

The fan should be upgraded with some sort of heatspreader and new fan accordingly. IMHO

That's easy man.
Just take the stock cooler off and put the new one on.

It looks great.

They are pretty easy to take off. They are usually just stuck on there with plastic pushpins. You can use needlenose pliers or tweezers to pinch them back through the holes. And yes it is very much worth it to OC the card.

Although sometimes you don't even need to upgrade the cooling. My ti4200 still has stock cooling and it overclocked from 250 core/446 mem to 315 core/580 mem.

Not to threadjack or anything but

Dumpa, you are running that TT fan off the card itself? I just recently purchased the TT setup for my 4400ti and am wondering if i can do the same thing without worry of burning things out.

I was running a Asus 4200ti (v9280/td not the turbo) with the TT heatsink in dumpa's pic & i got it up to 310/610 without artifacting then i added a 80mm blowhole in the door & got to 320/622 , Happy Hunting.
