Holy smokes...... Nice card... but, I didn't pay that much for my Truck.......

[donnato]

Wow ... yeah that`s more than I`d ever need, and, yeah, I`ve bought cars for less. Still... thanks Arion, it`s fun to window shop.

So .. what do ya think of this >> http://www.amazon.com/ARCTIC-Accelero-Graphics-Efficient-DCACO-V860001-GB/dp/B00I3ETT84/ref=sr_1_1/191-4365743-5463266?ie=UTF8&qid=1402631140&sr=8-1&keywords=gpu+liquid+cooling

I think when it gets to the point that you have to consider water cooling for your CPU and your GFX card because the temps in your house are 90+ degrees or worse then you need to get  one of these.

[HeyYou]

Unless you are overclocking, water cooling is a waste of money, and just over complicates things. Keep in mind, it still needs to shed it's accumulated heat into the same environment as a simple heat sink. If your environment is 90+ degrees, THAT is what you need to fix.

Agreed HY, I was interested but not to the point of messing with a perfectly good card. Also, I`ve found no need to OC Bessie. I`ve explored that option enough.     Arion, I have one of those but after running it last year added another $50/mo. to my elec. bill I`ll probably end up giving it away.
