I recently picked up an 8800GT to shove in my server's spare PCI-E slot and fold on, but it's running far too hot. Even at 100% fan speed, it runs at 85c. It's a single slot model. The case has somewhat decent ventilation, but it does have an 8800GTS in there with it, as well as an overclocked E2140, both running 100% full load all the time.
Do the single slot 8800GT's normally run this hot? Should I try finding a better cooler for it, or would simply replacing the thermal paste with MX-2 be good enough?
just replaced my thermal paste on my ATI HD5770 with AS5 temps dropped by 10c from upto 64c down to a solid 51c when folding on it
