try increasing ur fan speed with rivatuner.
i hate cards running hotter than 45C on idle.....i no its normal....but it really bugs me. so i turned up ma 9600GT fan to 100% to get a temp of 40C. its nice and it not audible xcept at 1am when everi1 is sleeping. 9800GT i think uses the same cooler....not sure.i don think it will make a lot of sound at 100%. but i heard ppl getting 50C at 65% fan speed

thanks alot for the reply everyone ^^

i dont overclock this cards, everything on default set

as for intake fan i think good enough, since i using thermaltake tower case :)
and for my room temp is around 27C i guess, kinda hot nowdays so usually i use cooler and set to 25C

glad this card on good condition ^^
thanks again for the information!
