From: Jan Coffey <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Water cooled is definaly a possible first step. Anyone have any other ideas for keeping the video card cool? Anyone know of a 450W power supply with a quiet fan?
For the video card cooling, how about a blower fan that sits in a PCI slot next to the video card:

Antec Cyclone Blower, Expansion Slot Fan Model 77094 Retail Cyclone Blower 111x89x21mm, low noise, fits into any expansion slot. Help cool Video and other expansion cards.
Specifications:
Air Volume : 22CFM
Noise Level : 28dBA.
Fan Speed 2,200 rpm
Fits any expansion slot
IMHO, 28dBA is quite quiet. You could probably add 2-3 to empty slots and still not have much extra noise.
