Newegg.com - ARCTIC COOLING ACCELS1 Rev 2 VGA Cooler - VGA Cooling

I'm getting this thermal paste for it:
Newegg.com - Tuniq TX-2 Cooling Thermal Compound - Thermal Compound / Grease

and I'm mounting this fan on it:
Newegg.com - Scythe SY1225SL12SH 120mm "Slipstream" Case Fan - Case Fans

I'm actually getting two Scythe's. One for the 4850 and another to replace the stock exhaust fun on my case.
If you don't have a intake fan get a third scythe for it or use your old exhaust fan.
