So, my rig is almost complete. My only concern now is about the graphics cards. At first, I was going to go for a 460 1gb sli, but my budget got a bit higher so I moved to a 470 sli. The only problem now is cooling. I read everywhere that 470 run hot as hell, 90+ C° even when non-OCd. My case has a lot of air cooling (NZXT Phantom with all of the fans except lateral mounted), but I don't know if this is enough. I read about people that changed thermal paste and applied Arctic Silver, but I also read about others that were so stressed out to go liquid.
Actually, I'm quite interested in LC, but it's a very complex and EXPENSIVE topic that needs lots of experience and money so I'm really not sure.
What can you recommend?
