i am upgrading to a 6800gt and with my old card, i was having a lot of heat issues. it was an XFX 6600gt with this $h!tty little cooler on it. i dont have the cash to buy an aftermarket cooler, so i wanted to know what brand would be best. unless it would be cheaper to get an aftermarket cooler...

What the?

You said you cant afford a $30 heatsink so your going to buy a 300/400 dollar card instead?

No shlt it would be cheaper to get an aftermarket heatink.

Either way, the Leadtek 6800GT uses the best heat sink.

Leadtek are probably the best. The XFX 6600GT uses nVidia spec cooling, which is fairly good. Well its your choice. I'd say Leadtek or BFG.

well, one of the main reasons is because my parents are paying for it, and they will be like, NO you can only get 2 things. and i would be like, NO you are stupid. and then they wouldnt pay for any of it. what about the chaintech cooler? it looks pretty good. its go heatpipes.
