Hey!

I'm looking for the coolest card that will run 1080HD smoothly.

I have a spare accelero that I will fit on it if it's compatible.

Any Radeon 3000/4000 series will do. I would go with this Asus HD3450: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... 6814121230

Pretty big heatsink.

Thanks!

Is it a lot cooler than a 8800GT? I have one now, and if it aint that big difference, I'll just keep my 8800GT

Much, much cooler. But also, much, much less powerful for games.
