Just need some advice from people...

I have 100 bucks to burn in the form of a newegg gift card and have been wanting to cool my system a bit and shoot for some noise reduction.

On top of the Zalman CNPS 10X Performa for my CPU, I was considering getting the Zalman VF3000A Vga Cooler

When playing Bad Company 2 my GPU temps get up to around 70c on a 850/1200 OC. Id like the push the GPU a little further if I could. (Asus EAH5850)

Do any of you feel this would be a worth while upgrade for the cost?

Will also be adding 3 120mm case fans to my Antec 300.


If not I may just get the Corsair H50 for my CPU

They are only around 70 under load? Thats not bad at all. Id save a bit extra and get one for crossfire.
 
The only issue I see it that VGA cooler will dump the heat into your case which would defeat your goal of cooling your system...then again your adding case fans so why not go for it and let the rest of us know how the cooler works ;)
 
unless u think the stock fan is too loud. otherwise dont bother
