I notice there are many mentions of people having heat problems with heat and Gforce cards. Is there a GPU fan upgrade solution anyone knows about for these cards? Me i am about to install a second fan on mine due to the first one dying? I had read something about this on ojne of the hardware sites, but i can't remember which one.

makes the blue orb cooler for GF2. I have a Radeon so I have no idea on how well it works. You may want to try using artic silver thermal paste if you do upgrade your fan. Although it is more expesive, I've read it reduces CPU temps by 3-5 degrees Celcius versus using standard thermal grease.
Also try looking in the video cards section at sharkyforums.com
