Well I've been reading a lot of reviews and what not about how the 8800's run hot and have problems and what not...and while I only saw a 500 point jump in 3dmark 06 (which is my only complaint, it plays better in 'real world' games, probably a driver issue anyway) My 640MB 8800GTS pulls less power and runs just as cool as my previous SLI'd 7800GTX's..did I just get a really good card or is my $30 Rosewill mid-tower case (yes, $30, seriously) just that good at cooling?
 
42 to 45C idle, 58-60C under full load....almost exactly the same as my 7800GTX's in SLI..but a little less actually
 
my vid cards are also around these temps, with stock cooling, but that´s due to the airflow inside my case
