Just ordered a new 7800GT and a aftermarket cooler that will be in next week so I will be getting rid of my current card. I will post it up in the classifieds mid next week. It is a Leaktek WinFast PX6800 GT TDH (http://www.leadtek.com/3d_graphic/winfast_px6800_gttdh_1.html) This is one of the best 6800GT's on the market. The heatsink is huge and pure copper that covers the back of the card also. Card auto detects overclock at 438gpu/1170mem at 51c idle, which will easily outperform a 6800 Ultra. Fan is completely silent at full speed.

I will ask $190 firm. They are running about $290(mail order) and $399 at Fry's and this one is 7 months old. I have the box, accessories, books, cd and receipt for warranty. It has the PCI-E 6-pin power connector but comes with an adapter that will use two standard four pins to convert to the 6 pin. This is SLI capable also. I have run it overclocked at 410/1100 even though it will go much higher and have never seen a temp over 64c. Nothing on the card has been modified, changed, or removed so warranty is still good.

This factory heatsink will outperform the NVSilencer and Zalman both. My last card was an PNY 6800GT AGP card and had the Zalman installed. I saw someone on Ebay selling the Leadtek heatsink because they switched to water cooling so I bought it for my PNY card. I installed the Leadtek heatsink in place of my Zalman and it it dropped 2c at idle and 3c at full load.

Got the 7800GT in tonight and loving it! Not a huge increase from the 6800GT but a step up non the less.
