From this review, the memory heatsink adhesive of the HR-03 PLUS is very weak.
http://www.tomshardware.com/2007/08/27/how...lers/page2.html Bro Ianho, did u face the same issues? If use third party thermal adhesive, will it be too sticky and hard to remove the heatsink when you want to take it off in the future? |

The HR-03 Plus can use smaller fans using zip ties.
Wonder can put 120mm fans or not using zip ties?  Maybe bro Ianho can answer that?  This post has been edited by tskhang: Sep 25 2007, 09:12 PM |

QUOTE(ianho @ Sep 26 2007, 05:11 AM) Added on September 26, 2007, 5:13 am Ya u can use zip ties. I'm using thin profile hi speed 70mm fans which are only 10mm thick. I used screws to mount them directly on the fins.  |

QUOTE(cstkl1 @ Sep 27 2007, 04:07 AM) True Bro, can post pics. just finish cleaning up my 8800gts really wanna see how much more can overclock ... now standing around 33 percent.. hopefully break to 50 percent A3 revision rulez anyways hope with the HR03plus+with Silverstone FM123.. can cool the gts enough or might have to volt mod the card.. there is a limitation to air cooling and i think this should be it 333x6 on stock cooler 675/1674/2106 - 3dmark06 - 11506 with MX2 702/1728/2106 - 11566 with this??? geee can it break the 1800 barrier without volt mod and also the 12k 3dmark barrier...  I would like to see how the 12cm fan looks like together with the HR-03 plus in the case. I was thinking of doing this setup myself but afraid that it would somehow look out of place. |

What's the best way to remove the stock HSF on 8800gtx after removing the screws? Do you just pull it off or there is a way to do it?

QUOTE(blackshirt @ Oct 3 2007, 09:39 PM) Best is not to cool off too long before removing, run the card for 20-30mins then cool off like 5-10mins, remain a bit of heat, dont direct 90* pull off, turn left / right to loose the contact thermal tape, then clean deep and apply new thermal paste (GPU) then carefully stick the thermal tape on ram/chip sink on, Wah, a bit scary lah especially when ur doing it on the RM 2000+ card For more detail you can go to product page for step by step instructions  Happy modding .But thanks for your guide.  QUOTE(ianho @ Sep 25 2007, 11:42 AM) It's always a problem when ppl dont clean the chips properly b4 applying the heatsinks. It's not the thermal tape's fault. The tape that comes with the heatsinks is a good brand called Sekisui. U need to clean off the oil left behind by the stock thermal pads. The stock thermal pads leave a very oily white residue on the chips. If u just stick the heatsinks on top of that, it's sure to fall off. Can ArctiClean remove the oiliness of the stock thermal pads? Will it damage the card if overspilled due to small surfaces of some chips?The way I do it is to use Zippo lighter fluid to clean off all the oil. Then I use alcohol to clean off the zippo residue n the chips are like brand new with no oil on them. THEN n only then do u stick the heatsinks on. The tapes are very strong, u just need to clean the chips properly 1st. It's quite shocking to c a site like Tom's Hardware doing things like that actually.  It's just basic knowledge to clean off the chips 1st b4 sticking on the heatsinks.This post has been edited by tskhang: Oct 4 2007, 07:28 PM |

QUOTE(clayclws @ Jan 25 2008, 08:01 PM) I'm gonna use 120mm fan for it instead. Use the bracket from my Ultima90i. The bracket from HR03GT will fit into my Ultima90i, so dual fan on my Ultima90i Can use 120mm fan on the HR03GT using 120mm bracket from Ultima90? Can post pic? If this is the case, this method can apply to HR-03 plus too... |
