Best aftermarket HSF for 6800 GT?

I'm looking to OC my PNY 6800GT a little, and to keep it cooler than the stock cooler does, I am looking for an aftermarket HSF. I found the NV Silencer 5, which seems like a good product that does the job, but what other products are out there, and what is the "best"? Thanks!
 
no.


upgrading to someones used reference Ultra cooler is a good idea too, especially if its a copper cooler 🙂
 
Thugs is correct on both counts. Everything takes up another slot.... and upgrading to a used ultra copper cooler is a fine idea as well... finding that cooler though, will be a bit harder.. 🙂

 
NV5 is the only one that cools both GPU and RAM... watercooling is naturally best, but its not just a videocard cooler, you need the rest of the WC setup, water block, etc. the NV5 is the best (only) for air cooling.
 
oh yeah, i never said water was going to be cheap... 🙂 he asked what was best, SO i told him.

Its abotu $300 when all is said in done for the block, tubes, radiator, pump, etc.. 🙂

But it is THE BEST.. and thats what he asked for.


But what makes the most sense?

The NV5 for sure, great cooler for a great price.
