What's an inexpensive, but good-performing cooler for the gtx? I'd like to buy from NewEgg since I can pay with PayPal....

I can put up a fan on it, and I have room, as I don't have any PCI cards in there... I'll need to add one for my firewire, but that can go in the last slot.... so any suggestions?
 
I see the HR-03, but that's pretty high... and trying to make sure I get the right one, looks like several versions of that one.

I'm running about 77C under load at 100% fan, which is NOISY.... my cooler chirps like a chipmunk (REALLY ANNOYING) at anything over 80%. The guy I bought it from had it under water, so I'm hoping I just need to reset the cooler and it should do ok... some folks have said their stock eVGA 8800gtx cooler does really well.... not mine. :(
 
You can't go wrong with the HR-03.

I'm not sure if the Accelero S1/2 supports the GTX. If it does, that is probably a better choice for your budget
 
Indeed the Thermalright models are great, aye a little pricey but they definatly do there job.
 
I don't think the Accelero S1Rev2/S2 fit my card... they don't list it as compatible. :( I do wish there were a place to attach a fan to them, as well...

I think I'm about to drop some cash... shopping right now.
