Never actually noticed it :ashamed: but my GPU IS theoritically on FIRE…
This is the GPU im talking abt …
XFX Geforce FX5200 WITH HSF (without a Cooling Fan 
)
as u can see from the pics below…ive just placed a 80mm fan on the PCI card bwlow i (sound card ) to blow the air directly onto the HSF of the AGP card… . can anything more be done …which can be worked out cheaply?..
some smaller fan or anything??.
better fir the fan perpendicular in the card … as in this arrangement fan can’t suck the air coz of sound card… 5200 usually doesn’t get much hot
Ya , the fan cant blow air on ur card since its blocked from behind.
Try this pageColdMiser’s Miserly Cooler
I’m using it to cool my card but in a slightly different way, maybe ill post a pic later.
According to the PIC given, your FAN setup is 100% wrong. It is even worse than without the FAN.
Reason:
It can be clearly seen that the SOUND CARD+FAN+AGP CARD all together has created a airless zone on the Heat-Sink of the AGP card.
After all, the FAN needs open space of drag air and throw it to the card, which is totally blocked by the SOUND CARD.
Solution:
You can do the MOD shown by ‘max_ds’. I really like it and you can do it with your existing FAN, no need to buy other stuffs.
Or install a smaller FAN like 40mm on the Heat-Sink.
^^yes..please try to post it…as of now…im trying to fit a fan smhow like that…thnx for link..

too bad pics are gone…
I dunno whether the pics are gud enough . Uploading them in a hurry(I have to complete 2 assignments)
The metal thing to which the fan is attached was removed from a cdrom drive bay.
Will not fit this with his setup with SOUND-CARD and TV-TUNER-CARD.
^^i have another P3 system…& i thought the same exact thing…but as IOSOFT said…it simply wont fit..
ok.heres’ how it is now…had to put a small extension to make the fan come close to the HSF of the GPU…
the temperature of the HSF (acc to the analog thermometer i have ) is ~ 34 degrees 
@idle…will post the load temp after a few hrs of CSS..
done… …working fine for me…after 2 hrs of css..~38 degrees..
thanks guys..
