Icon2 Help with watercooling 8800GTX

Just recently bought a Sparkle 8800GTX and it's wayyy to hot

I know nothing about watercooling... so a lil help would be much appreciated.

define "way too hot" ?

Afaik stock cooler keeps the GPU cool enough and if you have good case airflow, the fan doesn't even make much noise

Icon2 Sorry

Idle around 55°C and on load above 66°C. It made my pc ~10°C hotter.



[edit]
Hmm... Strange thing that I didn't really hear the GTX Which is good. My airflow?? Well. To be honest I didn't really work on that :P I need some additional coolers.

66°C is cool; don't worry, as long as your GPU temp stays below 80°C your fan won't speed up and remain silent
