ANyone have the MSI SLI w/ 2 6800gts w/ aftermarket coolers that fit? 2 NV5 coolers don't fit so I had to use the stock cooler on the top card and it runs at 74C at load.

74 under load isnt too bad when you look at it, mine ran at that and its not in SLI and works fine(remember, they're built to go to 120c before throttling). But that said, you'll be hard to find a single slot cooler thats better than the stock one (mainly cause there arent any).

My sugestion is leave it as is or if you have the money (which having 2 6800gt would lead me to believe) get water cooling :)
 
don't have it in sli yet b/c my seller forgot to include the power adapter so I expect my temps to rise. guess it doesn't really matter but I am interested in seeing what other ppl have done to combat this space issue b/c who knows what future cards will be like?
