Default Wanted: Decent VGA Cooler

hi guys, i'm in need for AirCooling solution for my 8800GTS for i'm taking my H2O rig down, for DD PC Chill is not sufficient enough on taking algae and rust down to minimal, its just four months and my whole system is suffering growth of brown and green substance...

so before i spend any money on VGA cooling, i would like to ask you people if you have something in your stash sufficient than stockcooling, willing to buy it off you for minimal charge ofcourse coz i'm tight in cash...

planning to take the H2O off this week... or if you guys have suggestion on cheap VGA cooling soln would be appreciated also...

i'm looking into this right now Newegg.com - Thermalright HR-03 / R600 VGA Cooler - Retail

Before you give up on water though, try this: throw out the DD crap fluid and get some PT-Nuke and some distilled water from your local grocery store. This will stop any algae from growing in your loop.

Oh ok, I was about to say that I'd buy some of the blocks from you...
But I can understand that your wife wouldn't want to use it while theres liquid in it...
My dad rebuilt our family PC with 8600GTS SLI and everything but the mosfets are WC'ed... My moms always like "are you sure thats not going to leak??" "what if the tubing breaks and it kills the computer and I loose all my email???!?!?!?!!"... hahaha, shes always concerned about her email, she gets like 100 new emails a day.

I'm glad your going to put the watercooling back in eventually!
But one suggestion, get rid of all those elbows man, I just did a calculation and found that if you take out all your elbows (11 of them) in your system you'll get .50 more GMP. Right now your getting about 1.11GMP, and thats pretty low.
You'll get better tempetures without the elbows.

hal, if you are tight on cash why don't you just put your stock cooler on your card? i don't think your wife will know the difference.

I have tried and tested WCing solutions, mixtures etc and distilled water + Zerex = no growth , turning dirty colors etc.

And for VGA air coooling there are a bunch of coolers available. Zalman and Thermalright make good ones.

VGA & Chipset Cooling

There's a bunch there, and sharka has excellent service.

Here is a nice selection of Thermalright VGA coolers from again, a good company.
