I can run my GeForce FX card at 500MHz on core and 1GHz on ddr for about 20 min. But then it overheats and looks the system. The default is 400MHz/800MHz. I have been reading about Gainwards water cooling for the FX 5800, but I can't find were I can buy it. I don't need the radiator or the pump or any of that stuff. Just the blocks. Would you recommend a different cooling solution then Gainward? Were could I buy water coolin for my card?
Here's what I was looking at:

Thanks!

dont waste money on watercooling, ebay ur current card and put it towards buying a new one.
just my opinion anyway
AMD Athlon 2500 @ 3200+
Abit NF7-S v2.0
512MB (2x256) matched pair Corsair XMS PC3200 DDR400 in dual channel
Sapphire ATI Radeon 9800 pro 128MB
Maxtor Diamondmax 80Gig HD ATA133

Is there a cheaper water cooling block for that card? I'm going to put water cooling in my computer anyways.

Watercooling isn't worth it, may as well ebay your card like nealwainwright said and by a new better card with better cooling
Will save money that way
I recommend the HIS Radeon 9800 Pro ICEQ with an awesome cooler :-)
