xfx hd 5770 mod ideas

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 
so i have the card shown below


i want to mod this card to stop sounding like it's made out of loud children and sugar.

when it is above 35 to 40% its just way to loud as are all cards that have that dumb fan design. other than watercooling what ideas do you all have?
would like to keep it as slim profile as i can and no bigger than the card currently is.
also want it to exhaust most, if not, all of the heat out of the back of the case.

if parts need to be made to fit things thats fine with me, i have modded much more complex things than a simple graphics card.
can even make molds out of epoxy if need be.

Get the AC Acellero L2, the 5750 I had from HIS had a modified version from Arctic Cooling. Accellero L2 It was enough to OC the stock 5750 to almost 900 core and 1370 ram from 700 and 1150. Even at full speed it was quiet.
