I am actually quite interested in the new thermalright HR-03 plus vs the new arctic cooling passive cooler you see on this card, wonder how well it will hold up on an 8800GTS/GTX, because I dont think my reserator 1+ would really be able to handle the heat output of the G80 even if I could find a block that'll fit :p
