Buy a 9700 and OC it; less noise + half cheaper + equal performance

I think I'm missing the 'cheaper'-part.
Btw, any chance I could repair my GF4's cooling or that I could still get some bucks for it?

just feel at the back side of your GPU either it doesn't get too warm.... if it does, then your cooler is broken

how are your CPU temps?

Usually somewhere between 45 and 50°C (or so they were on hot days in june, haven't really touched the damn thing for nearly 2 weeks now).

I've got a possible buyer who I might trick in paying up to €100.
Ain't got time until next weekend, if that suits you...

make sure your cpu core isn't damaged, since your cooler fell off
also check your cpu temps

CPU is fine, I reckon, temps don't go above 50° (don't know about it on a hot day though).
I just remembered something: somewhere waaaay back in june, around 3 AM, on a cold night when I had my window open, I was playing Deus Ex and I thought 'I'll go to bed when it crashes', yet around 6 AM I discovered that I was still up and running. This kinda agrees with the GPU cooler being broken-theory. I'll get someone to look after it asap, yet I wonder: could I still return it to the store (ForCom) or isn't a broken cooler covered by the guarantee? (Bought it last september, so the year isn't over yet.)
