I'm itching to update my GPU. There is a club 3d 5770 going for 125 euros, which is 25 under everyone else here at the moment. I'm pretty fussy on noise as are a lot of people here so I thought I'd ask.
1. Club 3d a descent brand ?
2. How noisy are the turbines , should I wait for the aftermarket versions ? ]]> ATI Cooling mr soft http://www.overclock.net/ati-cooling/612103-5770-turbine-style-noisy.html VGA coolers for 4770 http://www.overclock.net/ati-cooling/610850-vga-coolers-4770-a.html Tue, 17 Nov 2009 08:28:01 GMT so im planning on purchasing xfx 4770 at the first of the month and i cant seem to find any aftermarket VGA coolers that are compatable for it. does anyone know if there compatable coolers for this card? so im planning on purchasing xfx 4770 at the first of the month and i cant seem to find any aftermarket VGA coolers that are compatable for it. does anyone know if there compatable coolers for this card? ]]> ATI Cooling Trevdog http://www.overclock.net/ati-cooling/610850-vga-coolers-4770-a.html 4870 super high temps http://www.overclock.net/ati-cooling/610250-4870-super-high-temps.html Mon, 16 Nov 2009 07:05:57 GMT ok so i decided to crank my fan while i was doing some folding and i happened to see the temp it was 95C and the memory was over 100C and i noticed the fan bar was blank but it said 100% and i checked on the fan and it was not spinning now i was folding for over 1 hour before i noticed and I've got a feeling there was some damage because now when i boot the PC i get all weird numbers and letters in the bios it looks like this so give it to me straight is it dead? i plan on giving XFX a call in a few hours but i want a professional opinion(lol)

I have problems running my XFX 4890 under stock clocks when I start getting into more graphic intense games.

At 35% fan speed, I can play CS:S, TF2, Cod4, Killing Floor type games

When I start getting to games like Left 4 Dead, Left 4 Dead 2, I need to raise it to 40% or more

When I get to Batman Arkham Asylum, Borderlands, Crysis, I need 55% or more.

Anything under the fan speeds I've listed will result in a crash and will reboot my computer. My GPU sticks around 75-80C, so I'm guessing it's the memory that is overheating. What should I do to fix this, since anything over 36% fan speed is pretty noisy and annoying. ]]> ATI Cooling milkcow500 http://www.overclock.net/ati-cooling/606793-overheating-xfx-4890-a.html xfx 4870 ram hot. http://www.overclock.net/ati-cooling/604857-xfx-4870-ram-hot.html Fri, 06 Nov 2009 20:42:26 GMT im overclocked to 819|1100 right now and my memory even with the fan set to 100% loads in the upper 80's and idles in lower 70's, is there anymods or anything to cool them down? ]]> ATI Cooling mooneyham http://www.overclock.net/ati-cooling/604857-xfx-4870-ram-hot.html XFX Fans are starting to make funny noises ... http://www.overclock.net/ati-cooling/601951-xfx-fans-starting-make-funny-noises.html Sun, 01 Nov 2009 22:46:58 GMT Please find below how my setup looks like : Image: http://i266.photobucket.com/albums/ii256/Integrabyte/DDR.jpg Image: http://i266.photobucket.com/albums/ii256/Integrabyte/I7002.jpg Image: http://i266.photobucket.com/albums/ii256/Integrabyte/XFX.jpg I know it is not the best CFX... Please find below how my setup looks like :







I know it is not the best CFX setup out there but please believe me when I decided to buy this system CFX was not on my mind. I got a deal I could not refuse on both XXX cards and I bought them. As one can see from the screenshots, the space between cards is non-existent. One of my fans is making the eternal "plastick hitting something" noise. I am sure that this is a sign of fatigue and soon it will fail. In my view, I have two options (without changing my motherboard, of course) :

1. Send the card back to XFX, pray to get an identical one, and wait till the one I have will break. XFX decided to make 1 revision for the XXX version so, all of them will suffer from the same bug.
2. Buy aftermarket cooling. The problem here is that I need something efficient ... that will allow me to have a CFX setup.


Musashis are out of the question because they are too tall. One of the cards won't allow the second to enter the PCI-E slot. Will the Accelero Twin Turbo fit? Is there something else out there with an acceptable width that will allow me to have good cooling and a CFX setup?

One post I saw recommended getting http://www.crazypc.com/products/9363R.html those and using stock cooling for everything else. Would the stock sinks be sufficient for the rest of it. I have an HAF-932 case so there would be a big fan blowing directly on the cards to cool them. Also should I run a second look for these? Specs of my current water loop are in my sig, just a MCR320 rad, I'm not sure but I don't feel like it would be sufficient to cool an OC'd i7 and 3 OC'd 4890's.

I was wondering if there's a cooler that goes to the back of the card? :rolleyes:
I know there's a Zalman one that goes on both sides of the card...

what's going on? I take it the DISPIO is the correct temp?

it's really annoying since all software now sees the temp a lot higher :mad:

I've already modified a zalmann 80mm GPU cooler to fit, and it worked fine - other than the weird artifacts, super hot memory chip temps, and system freezing due to lack of memory chip cooling.

Here are all the heat sinks I have.



Is there any type of glue I can use? Maybe super glue? Double sided tape isn't working (should I try harder? ]]> ATI Cooling CASEMODS http://www.overclock.net/ati-cooling/596318-2600-xt-memory-chip-heat-sink.html
