    i recommend spending the extra $100 and getting the 8800 GTS 512mb.

    why are you placing your CPU fan on the 12 volt rail and not onto the mobo CPU fan header?

    Well, my fan blows air over a heatsink which is on my CPU, it isn't right on top of it like most CPU fans. i think it is on the 12 volt rail. not exactly sure though. I also think the that 512mb 8800GTS isn't worth $100 more, but it wont fit anyway so no argument there.
