Being that the 8800GTS 640MB has some cooling issues, I am wondering what it a good solution for cooling. (looking for specific brands/names)

Hi,

well I guess a case with good ventilation is essential, so i'm not gonna go into that.

You can get some slot fans top and bottom of the card to help pull away the heat. Here's one:

My Gigabyte 8800 gts was always so hot. Then i realize that the video card fan was always at 59% fixed. So it idles at mid high 60s degrees. When i switch it to 90%, it now idles at around high 50s degree.

Hope it helps
I have a hot room to start with btw.
