sifu, I am using GTX570 and the last time i update my driver. So far no problem. Do I need to update driver?

What is the current driver you're using now?

Driver Version : 311.06

If you really feel like updating driver, you may install 314.22 and stay on it until the next WHQL driver.

what is the difference between this driver and 314.22?

Great! Decided to put a 120mm fan on my side casing (available fan slot) with double ultra-fine filters (can't stand the dust!). Blows directly into the casing on top of my GTX760.

Gaming Metro LL for 20 minutes (full settings 1920 x 1080, closed casing), max temp at 57'c only at 67% fan speed (1920rpm). A reduction in GPU temp of 3-4% 'c!

Air-con room at 26'c..... on idle, GPU drops down to 31'c after 10 minutes.....

may i ask what brand is your fan filter...planning to get one as well..

without a/c, my gtx 670 is around 37c (idle)
with a/c, temp only only drop to 35c.. (idle)

hmm i got dust filter on top but all the dust still accumulate on top of my case

Anyone got problem with 320.49WQHL?mine freezed..

try the latest beta driver and see

Using silverstone magnetic ultrafine filter. Bought it from here : https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=2817021&hl=

Even with the ultrafine filter, the pesky dust can still go through. That's why decided to put double filter for the side fan (1 filter before and 1 filter after the fan). However, since it is ultrafine, it filter dust better than the normal filters. However, the magnet is handy as I can just stick it to anywhere that is metal.

You're using MSI GTX760 too?

How's your casing airflow? My casing is CM 690 advance. 1x 140mm and 1x120mm fan blowing in, 2x140mm (temperature controlled) and 1x120mm fan blowing out.

I'm using it. No problems so far. However, my previous GTX460 also had intermittent freeze when using this driver. Had to switch back to 314.22 to avoid the problem.....

about your driver version 311.06 i didn't find at GeForce driver website but if u want to know about version 314.22 maybe this can helps u

314.22

i have already try this driver so far no problem but i think better try roll back to this driver 314.22 maybe this can help u

im using the non ultrafine one atm, gotta say the meshing is wide but it do hold its own against dusts

of course, the finer ones do end up inside my rig, i cant totally filter them unless i make a mesh of my own.

another of my friend DIYed the very same filter as me with extra finer mesh. so far he said that dusts cant even be spotted until a month has passed or even more

where can get the mesh for diy??

Interesting. Yeah, where to get the extra finer mesh for DIY?

I really feel like wrapping all openings with meshes!!!!!

Im not very sure, but apparently he used something as fine as a microfiber cloth and attach them to the filters

Summoning refor_matt

is it safe if i use air compressor to blow out the dust?

iinm...yes...if u are using the 'can' air compressor coz got less static effect as compared to using vacuum cleaner.....

hey wanna ask expert here..i just upgrade to gtx760 and changed to 600w PSU. do i need to get any extra cooler fan for the GPU? so far i never overclock my system. i see u guys installed all sort of cooler system in your system?

Generally, you don't really need an extra cooler fan blowing at your GPU. But you can read what our dear friend did above. A standard setup needs only one casing fan for exhaust, and another one for intake.
