new 9600gt cooler

[kerrgreg]

ive jsut bought a 9600gt and am not too impressed with the cooling

what are my options to help get it cooler

i have water cooling, one loop with just the cpu cooled swiftec block, dual bay res d4 pump,1 single 120 and a double width 120 rad

i dont want to spend too much less than £45

i was looking at one of these n thought it might be quite good

it's on this-week-only, so comes with a free copy of GRID

Ohhhh a free copy of grid that could be a bad thing!

Also how do i know that either of them will definatly fit my card it doesnt say it will on ocuk will any 8800cooler fit?

the one I posted definitely does.. I check the AC site

 

[kerrgreg]

the ac one is meant to cool the memory too how is that does it have a large base or is it from the large cooler passivly cooling the area?

ok ive answered my own question above

but is this thing really wider than it is long! 138mm long and 215mm w! that wont fit in my coolermaster elite 330!

Vortexx NEO does, confirmed on the Akasa site.

ive been looking at it more and think that they are looking at length and width different to me else its nearly 2x as wide as it is long and on the ac site when you look at the installations pics on a 8800 its clearly longer than it is wide so should be fine im ordering it now from oc with the turbo fans they might b abit load bout think i might aswell
