Hey guys. Replacing my x1900XT because it runs too hot. By which I mean 110C when playing any full screen Directx app. So, assuming price isn't too much of an issue here what should I be looking at. The 8800 Ultras look pretty juicy, are they going to run cooler than this ATI piece of garbage I currently have?
Case airflow isn't an issue, but I don't really want to get into liquid cooling.

Ya... but I have to underclock it by almost half to get it to run under 95. Not really worth having a big fancy card if it can't preform under pressure.

That's why you buy good cooling stuff. You'll just buy a new card and have the same problem, waste of time and money.

All the video cards out now suck shit. Wait for DX10.1 cards coming this fall.

Oh come on. Not every gamer out there is running liquid cooling.
