Is it cool enough?

Hey all! I just bought my Video Card!!!!!!!!

Nvidia GeForce 6800GT 256MB DDR3!!!!!!!!!!
$625.86 Canadian dollars later! :shock:

But anyhow, here is my question to all experts. This Video Card produces alot of heat, obviously. Now it has it's own fan, but will it be cool enough?? I am running 2 exhaust fans on the back of my tower, and one Intake on the left side of the tower, where my window is. Now is this enough? Will it be cool enough?

Im no expert but id asume that NVidia thought this through and it would be fine? And as you have like 3 other fans im thinking ul be fine! Also the graphics card is damn sweet!
