Anyone got any experiences from this one?

Some questions:

1a) What about mounting a 120mm Nexus (or equivalent), instead of a 92mm. Possible? Better?

1b) Can, say a 120mm Nexus, be attached to the card's fan controller? Or will I have to set the voltages manually (probably using some heat diodes).

2) How much does it own the stock cooler (temps and noise). Worth the ~$60 investment (what I expect the cost will be here). Basically, if it's notably quieter it's worth it.

An issue with HR-03 Plus:
Compatible with Nvidia GeForce 8800 GTX video cards only.
For 8800 GTS card, a seperate HSI heatsink is required (available by mid March, free to existing HR-03 Plus owners.)
