Makado

I have one and I see that the cooler that comes with it is not as efficient
as it seemed, and little time after I run my computer it is boiling so I
thought a 3rd party cooler would make it better. Do you think it is a good
idea? I was looking about a cooler from Titan that is all-copper made and it
runs at 5300rpm in order to its specifications. Could it be a good choose?
Thanks in advance.

What about your system cooling, Makado? The best cooler in the world won't
help if you don't have good airflow through your case and over your card. I
don't know the Titan cooler, but I suspect a 5300 rpm fan would shift a lot
of air but would also be pretty noisy. Depends if that matters to you.

Sorry for forgiving that information, I have a Thermaltake Xaser III tower
and I replaced the cooler in front of the vga card with another which goes
faster.
 
Did you try any high-performance thermal compound? You're probably
going to need some anyways with a new cooler, so you might try
cleaning the stock goop off and putting it in. If nothing else, you
might get it applied better than the factory does, which might be
enough for you.
