are there any stopgap methods of cooling down a graphics card? discovered the reason it was always locking up in CS:S was the heat problem, and i cant get to the shops at the mo.

i've already opened the case which has helped a bit, but i'm looking for something a bit better, until i can get my hands on a decent card cooler. also, and recommendations for the aformentionedcard cooler?

take a hoover to the card to get all the crap out first, then point desk fan at case.


and grab the arctic cooling cooler to suit it when you can.
