The game should not be shutting down. Make sure the fan is working on your existing card. If it isn't contact XfX about a replacement. The 6800GT is perfectly capable of running guild wars.

lol price doesnt matter eh ? mmmm I smell SLI 
with a couple 7800s
Is it only GW or all 3d games?
btw you shouldnt need added cooling unless you are overclocking that puppy which could also be a reason it is shutting down...

Send it back to your card's manufacturer so they can send you a replacement.
Installing another cooler on the card will void your warranty.
(The NV Silencer is very nice, I have one on my 6600GT.)

I tried to RMA my PNY 6600GT (defective fan, replaced fan) and they would not accept it with the original equipment/parts/box.

PNY and XFX are different companies. Some companies have different ways on how you can void/keep your warranty on items.

get the arctic cooling fan, and keep your graphics card.
