I have just recently upgraded to a x1950xtx and currently am using the stock dual slot cooler. With riva tuner setting the fan speed at 56% the card at idle is around 40 C give or take and load closing in on 60. The fan much to my suprise, is fairly quite so nosie is out of the equation. My previous card had a zelman vf-900 cooler on it which by the way is fairly new. Here is where I'm at.
Would I see any improvement installing the zelman on my new card or would I not see much difference if I just put some better paste on the stock HS/fan, something like OCZ freeze?
