QUOTE(GammaBoy @ May 5 2008, 08:59 PM)  You guys got any idea to cool this thing? Idle = 70 C Load = 80 C Please help me!  ideas? 1) Use water? 2) use an aftermarket HSF? 3) go ghetto and stick a fan on it using zip ties or cable ties 4) downclock it? 5) clean the stock HSF if its horribly full of dust bunnies? 6) replace TIM with AS5 or TX-2? need more ideas?  |

Really a big massive and bulky cooler ...
I take up more than two PCI slots ....  But at least it would performs better than stock cooler at lower noise .. But I still prefer cooler with the blower style design that exhaust hot air through rear vents .. |
