umm your temps are very good just have the fan running at 40-50% and you'll be sweet.

Well my card has gone to 80ºC without any problem. If you want an aftermarket fan, I would recommend the Arctic Silver Accelero S1. I'm planning to get it soon and run it passively. Before though, it's a rather large heatsink.

this is what i did with mine.
8800gt alphadog edition. they are all the same cards, but have different face plates. so you can do the same with your's. i bought this baby http://www.thermaltake.com/product/C...2/cl-g0102.asp stock fan is shite. noisy and small.   face plate removed.  bought new thermal pads for the board. **its essential to do this if removing the face plate**  small bit of cleaning to be done. but it looks good so far  new baby is nicely mounted  and the side view. you can see the dimensions didnt change a whole lot. so sli still works fine.  and the final view.  well thats what i did with mine. i have 2 8800gt 512mb now. so im gonna buy another duorb when i can afford it. performance wise: ive overclocked my card and its running at the moment 720core / 1050 memory. with stock fan i was getting temps of 45oC idle. 60oC load in crysis. with he duorb im getting 35idle and 45oC load in crysis. it allowed me to overclock a lot more than i was able to with the stock fan.

Well... The temps he's running now are quite good, not much need to change except if he's having problems with the noise but if he's running at 50% of the fanspeed he shouldn't actually hear much of it...

I have my fan at 61%, with my OC (800/2000/1000) and I have a load temp of 57c. (I know it's not a GT)

GTS G92 have better stock coolers (as well as the G80, but those are cards that won't be selled anymore anyways).
