Err guys, what's the idle temp on a non modded 3870, using stock HSF that is the Reference HSF from ATI?
Owh, and the load temps too.

Deciding either i should buy a 3870 or 8800GT now.
*
Tested Zotac 8800GT and Saphire 3870. Indeed 3870 is better in picture quality and game compability.
Just tested a new 8800gt asus from my bro rig, 3870 rocks.

QUOTE(sHawTY @ Jan 5 2008, 08:46 PM)
I have an OP650, DA850 & OP1000 which one should i use if i were to run 3870 on crossfire?
Or should i just use the OP1000 directly?

My OP1000 can handle 2900XT on crossfire, however, because of the messy cables, i'd love to use the OP650 on my system. [The OP650 is not enough to power up the dual 2900XT on crossfire though.]

Is it possible to power up two 3870 on crossfire with just the OP650?
I know the OP650 can power up two 8800GT on SLi, just not sure about using two 3870 on crossfire with just OP650. hmm.gif

if i were you i use the biggets and baddest i have and sell the others. laugh.gif laugh.gif laugh.gif

The problem is, the biggest and baddest has the most wires which makes my system freakin' messy.
And by the way, i'm a PSU collector.
Although i don't use all 3 of them at once, i just love to keep em.

Now savin' money for a PCP&C Turbocool 1.2KW & PCP&C Silencer 750W.

Cool. The cable to manageable ka? Those modular design?
Im thinking to buy OP 850, any recommendation? unsure.gif

well, prefer who use both card, me, ^666^ ande nagflar use both 8800gt and find 3870 is slower but less issue in playing current or new game.
and the picture quality is better.
