The fan on my 9800 pro is really loud on startup then it quiets down, any suggestions on a replacement fan that uses the same stock mounting??
Thanks

Well there seem to be a consensus in favor of the  Zalman  VF700-Cu

You can do a "Do It Yourself" modification like me , I removed the ATI fan and put a Enermax 80mm I had in spare.

Crystal orb snaps right in the same holes, cools a bunch better as well.

Might as well not waste another new thread since this is at the top already; are there any easy-to-install fans that work better than the stock one of the XFX nVidia 6800?

Thanks for the quick replies,  Shamus I will be checking the Crystal orb out as that sounds like just what I am looking for.
