For nvidia anyways i know that most modern gpu cards do not require addional addin cards for the processing of physx. By using say a 9800/470 you will see a decrease in fps as the powerfull gpu waits for the slower physx card to do its calculations. I wonder if ati has the same thing with their cards too. IDK but thougth of throwing that out there.

while i am waiting for my retention bracket, Im thinking about adding a 2nd gpu block to my thermaltake water 2.0 pro that im going to use for the mod. I know some have added a larger
radiator with a different manufacturer, but this unit uses a different attachment method for the rads and the pump. So cutting the hose is really the only option. Im currently looking at a mini res, sivercoil, and some additive for when I get the nerve to cut my line. I already have a gpu block that came with my swiftech hd06900 heatsink. I will need to get a new heatsink for the 2nd gpu card to mount the pump.
Any positive thoughts?

But once I change back to my stock cooler everyting is working fine, temp 42 max degrees c and 75 when loaded
Pls advised.

Sorry for my bad english

did you plug the pump into a fan header or power it by a power supply connector?
Also did you put tim on the cpu and the heatsink? (both sides of the copper plate? )

Are the screws done tight enough and as someone said the thermal paste on chip copper shim thermal paste n cooler.


Noticed you have plugged into the fan header try using a Molex connection or setting the fan header to 100% in bios
