Would it make a lot more improvement ?

The thing is like $30 bucks.
Is it worth it ?
I'm not overclocking, I just don't want the temp to get too high.

It didn't really help lowering the temp on my x800xt pe. However, it did seem to lower my case temp.
Anyway, ATI cards are much cooler and cool enough IMO.
My x800xt pe was WAY WAY cooler than the 6800GT.

If your not overclocking its absolutely not worth it..

My x850xt stock HSF is almost SILENT and stays cool..

Card overclocks great as well..

What temp are you getting with your 850XT ?

Ambient and Load.
