try going to overclockers.co.uk, the card will have a fan so i wouldn't have thought you would need more depending on how many you have now. You may need to upgrade the power pack on the pc though.

hmm... i was afraid i might have to do that. I will probably need a cooling system aswell because a lot of ppl have said they had over heating problems.

thanks for the link, i will check it out

i think that is the card that my mate got for his HP. He only needed a power pack and a couple of £5.99 fans. Though the card will run a bit hot sometimes, and he rarly plays games that push it to the limit. If playing high graphical games, a cooling system would be a good idea.
