How long is the typical RMA wait time... It's been 2 weeks and I am getting sick of my xbox.
8800 gtx and motherboard. 8800 is PNY and motherboard was gigabyte. My motherboards PCI-express slot died, so it needed RMA. My 8800 gtx has a upper memory problem, causing artifacts in memory intensive games, not CS:S but games like crysis. When the motherboard went out I decided to RMA them both at the same time, since I was going to be without my desktop anyways.
ok Im stuck between deciding on two cpu coolers?
ZALMAN CNPS9900 or CORSAIR Cooling Hydro Series CWCH50
Im usually not a big fan of water cooling, always afraid of leaks but its a closed system, and i would almost feel that i would have a waste of the 5 fans that are already in my case.
I plan on overclocking back up to 3.8ghz like i used to have it before my last cooler failed. Currently using stock cooler on my i7
Test results from 3dgameman at 4ghz
zalman: idle 27c load 69c
Corsair: idle 36c load 59c
Current system
My gaming rig

the h50 will keep it cooler meaning you could do a higher OC.
also you can easily lap the h50 for a few more degrees off http://www.gametrailers.com/users/Bravospaz/gamepad/
If you want you could lap the CPU to, but that would void your warranty
use those 5 fans in your case to give your 4850s more of an OC and keep it cool
