Cool Down Video Card?

Is there any way to cool down a video card without buying a PCI fan? My mom won't buy me and I don't have any money and I can't play games :(

hope this helps you..i have a few pc fans i'd be willing to part with.(no charge).let me know|||Your video card should have a video card cooler on it. If you want cool your video card further you could open the side of your computer and have a fan blow on your video card. Why can't you play any games, the computer is ok to play some games?|||what my friend does is he opens his case and sticks an air conditioning fan right next to it so its constantly blowing cool air in...it works for him i might try it for im running into the same problem

|||Why is your video card overheating in the first place? Do you take care of your computer? It's very low end stuff and isn't very powerful, it shouldn't be overheating. Make sure your case fans are working, and clear out all the dust that is probably clogging them up. There isn't any reason for anything in your setup to be overheating, it's a somewhat powerful but not great CPU, the RAM won't get hot, nor will the HDD, and the video card is 3 generations old, I don't see how it can overheat unless you live in 100 degree heat all day long, keep it on playing games all day, and took out all of the fans. I'm running a setup much more powerful and working it hard with no extra fans/heatsinks and it still runs relatively cool.
