Hey guys, I was wondering if you guys can head me into the right direction on buying a cooler for my video card mentioned above. I don't mind letting go of a few dollars, but I don't want the most expensive one neither. Just want one that is good and reliable and will let me do some decent o/c. Any opinions will be greaty appreciated, thanks.:toast:

I really think the stock cooler is pretty good on the 2900xt. It has a full coverage design that keeps the ram and vregs much cooler then any 3rd party heatsink. I just put together a custom setup using the stock cooler and a HR-03:



I haven't pushed it very far yet but I've easily hit 900 core with 1.3v with load temps of 61C.

Only problem is that this setup takes up alot of space around the card :(
