WELL... according to MSI

It helps remove dust from the heatsink fins to ensure optimal cooling and lower operating temperatures.

wah you guys so rajin go to clean the dust.
me long time did not clean it.

I even clean my laptop's heat-sinks every 1 or 2 months.
And then a quick vacuuming from the battery socket area. (wonders if this damages the hardware inside)

P.S I have it on really low power.

I am just saying dont buy into MSI's marketing gimmick.

Use pc everyday, need to give some love for it.

Notebook heatsink every 1-2 months really not needed lar. Unless really dusty inside.

time 2 get AMD 7800 if u want less than 1k GPU

Not advice to use vacuum clearner as it highly static electrical charge...

Hoping it to be around RM700-800

Yea, more options then for the budget constrained users.

Is Galaxy card more expensive or cheaper compare with other brands of cards?

From my experience, it is often priced somewhere in between the cheaper ones from Leadtek and the pricier ones from Asus, MSI, Gigabyte. If budget is of your upmost importance, go for Leadtek instead.

IC, im really tempted by Galaxy GTX 660ti GC 2gb. But i find someting weird is that no seller in LY plaza selling this brand, only in garage sale got ppl sell.

FYI, a reference Leadtek GTX 670 costs around RM1129 only, so i'm not sure how much the Galaxy costs compared to this one?

If you have the budget for that, why not just go for the Leadtek GTX670, more future proof IMHO.

different case for gtx 670...galaxy seems to be more expensive compare to other brands.

Not me, I have a 680... I just thought 660 finally breaks the less than RM1k barrier, so a little surprised.

how much u bought your 670 PE??
last time u used asus 670 right?
any comment/recomendation between these 2 brand?
thank bro

Close to the SRP that you see today. Yes, i've also briefly used an Asus before. Some of my comments and summary:

Asus
1. Quitest fans. Load temp at 76C.
2. Relatively high boost clock at 1137MHz, even though the default clock speed is only at 915MHz (reference speed).
3. Solid build, with backplate.

MSI
1. Overclocked out of the box, performance on par/close to a stock 680. Boost clock observed at 1175MHz.
2. Better temps compared to Asus. Load temp at BF3 only 69C.
3. More expensive compared to Asus 670 DCUII (non TOP).
4. Fans have blue bling-bling, not too bright though.
5. Quite loud at startup, due to the "dust removal technology". Other than that, the fans are very quiet during idle or even at load temps.

Overall, i would say both are excellent cards. I just prefer the MSI PE slightly due to the overclocked out of the box experience. I'm not one who likes to OC the card anyway.

thanks for the compact plus full solid answers...
i was planning to buy either asus or gigabyte but since few day back, i saw this forum started to discuss more on msi card...so now i been eyeing on these 3 brand ...maybe need to see the real thing for my self....
did u bought from BJ shop your's 670 PE??
