Hi, i just bought Nvidia 8800GTS 640mb and i have read several issue on heat problems..currently i dont have any special cooling device, and the only thing that i use to keep it cool is a normal fan..i live in Seattle btw, so not much of a hot day. Do you think a normal fan put at the back of the CPU is enough? my room temperature is on an average of 65F..i need comment and guidance..thanks so much..:P
 
since its an 8800 it should be dual slot with a pretty big fan. if you're worried about cooling just put in a pci fan or something. the fans look pretty big, but if you're really worried rip off the stock heatsink and get an aftermarket vga heatsink.
 
It should be plenty, I have heard of no heat issues. Humidity plays a big factor on the way the heat builds on objects. These people that have the heat probs must live in the rain forest.
