It went great, and I have awesome clocks, but hellish temps. Are those temps safe? I know the gpu temp is, but what about the mosfets and memory #2 and #3?

New pic with same voltage and such. Even lower clocks. I couldn't get 830mhz stable. I'm wondering if this is even worth it.



I could now boil water on my vrm's.

Part of the reason my temps are so high is because my arctic silver adhesive that I just applied this morning hasn't set yet. I'll probably seee some drops soon, but DAMN!

I don't think a voltmod is really possible unless you're on water. These temps are ridiculous.

Edit: I just rechecked the voltage, and the actual voltage is 1.35v. I think i'll just blow some graphite off and see what that does.

I dropped the voltage to 1.32v, and it dropped my temperatures a lot.



What is temperature sensor #3 though?

Ok new temps

The very max load in furmark will take me up to 79c on the core. It's safe, I know, but i'd like it to be lower.

75 degrees C is fine, 80 is a safe threshold. Also the 4850 can go to higher temps than most other gpus. You're fine. Nice job on the vmod.

heh fan speed 14%? temps look safe but i would expect cooler results with the duorb.

Yeah, on stock voltage the idle is 32c load 44c. The core is fine, but i'm just worried about the vrm's and memory. #2 and #3. Is that safe? I have ramsinks on there too. It would probably hit like 200c if I didn't.

bump. This is urgent stuff.

Why aren't you running the duorb at 100%? I run my zalman at 100% all the time. Also what is the voltage you have on the chip now?

Run the fan faster.

The duorb doesn't have a fan controller. So it is running at 100%.

107c holy cow! lol

Bet at those clocks it beats my 4870

Maybe so, but it's still ridiculous temperature-wise. I'm using zaman RHS1's with thermal tape for the vram, and for the mosfets, vrm's, pwms, or whatever all that crap is on the right I have arctic silver adhesive that I just applied this morning. It still has yet to set though.

You all knew I was going to do it eventually... lol Same went for my 7800GS and 8800GT.

I'm surprised by the temperatures though, because if you go here http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...=190990&page=1 you'll see that people with those vf1000's are getting really good temps in comparison. I have as5 applied and everything. Maybe it just needs some time to set...
