Yes, thanks Marine!
Much lower temps and much quieter. I have to start the process of reloading all my stuff. I did have Seavee pass this profile to me on BOB2 settings for the old card.
Not sure where I set up profiles for this new card:
"Do not set Particle Density above Medium, even with your new bionic PC.
Also, make sure to set Antialiasing at 8XQ or 16XQ outside the game in the video driver settings and turn VSync ON.
There is an issue where you may have to set this and hit apply more than once to make it (and other customized driver settings) "stick". More info on this thread for 8800GTX owners:

My in-game and other driver settings:
I have played around alot with the in-game settings - basically everything is on Max eye candy levels except:
Anisotropic filtering = 8X (saw no difference at 16X but you can do that too easily)
Particle density = Medium
Aside from the in-game settings, I also made the following profile for BoB2 within the Nvidia graphics card settings. This is with the new 97.92 drivers that are for the 8800GTX.
Anisotropic Filtering = Application controlled
Antialiasing - Gamma Correction = On
Antialiasing = 16XQ
Antialiasing - Transparency = off
Conformant Texture Clamp = use hardware
Extension Limit = Off
Force Mipmaps = bilinear
Multi-Display/mixed-GPU acceleration = single display performance mode
Texture filtering - Anisotropic sample optimization = On
Texture filtering - Negative LOD bias = Allow
Texture filtering = Quality
Texture Filtering - Trilinear Optimization = On
Triple Buffering = Off
Vertical Sync = Force On
In the BDG.txt file I also set:
SMOOTHEN_FRAMERATE_MODE=LIMITED"
I recall using Nhancer but also recall another utility to create video profiles per sim?
