    cooler for 3870x2?

    i'm presently waiting for my tax return to grab myself an X2. when i get one, i will want to overclock, but the present air cooling market has no solutions for it. looking at the Thermalright HR-03GT, it does fit the card but it has to wrap around the pcb and the other cooler would have to face downward.would this work in keeping the cores cool enough for a 920+ core oc?

    heres a pic of one cooler wrapping around the card.

    EDIT: a quick run with paint and i think that i found a dam good cooler for it. the Thermalright V2 is strong enough to handle an X1900XT, so she wont have any problems with the RV680.
