Ya.. exactly like this one... i mean.. this is the one... they are HK if i'm not mistaken....

Do you notice there's a black cable near the exhaust? I wonder what the cable is for? it has 2 small heads (like the USB connectors that connect to mobo.

That two black head you mean is to connect ur mobo SPIDF IN port to support the HDMI

Oh.. ic... but i got a prob here. I cant change the fan speed using rivatuner. I set it to 80 and it did save at 80 but when i check the fan speed, it still run at 100%. Any solution for that?

mm.... try google it, maybe you can get a solution.

actually this fan is already available for VAIKOO 8800GT, its 100% the same fan as VF1000

Added on February 1, 2008, 3:51 pmrunning at 100% speed is far better than my ASUS 8800GT TOP edition with glaciator fan which can control fanspeed at all, even with thier own utilities... claimed by asus.... **** asus... this is a stupid move from asus...

anyway did u tick the box for apply the setting when start up windows?

Added on February 1, 2008, 4:10 pmmine is- Asus 8800GT TOP 512mb (glaciator fan), 700/1750/2020 default... OCed to 740/1802/2124
idle:49-50'c
load: 75'c with fullload for 30mins+ with ATItool

dont think the fan is running at full speed yet.... coz it didnt make much noise. I cant adjust the fan speed at all... damn.. stupid asus using dunno wat sensor and control which other software cant adjust it... no change with speedfan, rivatuner and others..... this is wat the **** asus have to say http://support.asus.com/faq/faq.aspx?no=82...SLanguage=en-us

is there any1 come to a solution to control fan speed or at least detect fan speed for this ASUS 8800GT TOP 700/1750/2020 512mb(glaciator fan) ???

Added on February 1, 2008, 5:39 pmoh ya.. one more thing.. can i install Dx10 into WinXP (32-bit) system? Will it cause any crashes?

This post has been edited by TheTraffic: Feb 1 2008, 05:39 PM

DX10 only can use on Windows Vista...

have u guys checked out guru3d.com got new 88gt from ECS great cooler bro

ermmm it will shorten the lifespan i guess......... if u can adjust with rivatuner... try to make fan profile for ur card..... u can set the speed of fan acording to the tempreture.. let say 45'c will run 50% , 50'c = 70%, 55'c = 90'c or so..........

100% fan speed will make anoying sound which some user cant tolerate... also depend on which type of fan and how loud the sound

i heard long time ago that winxp can install dx10 with some special software but im not sure about it.. anyway im using vista to play all dx10 games

Hey guys,

This is cool, see the post by Likito http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/546157/+240



Right now, Albatron 8800GT is running several promotions so it's just nice to get one and replace it with a powerful cooler fan.

Promotion 1:
http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/593171

Promotion 2:
http://www.goldfries.com/albatron/

great fan wats the temperature readings?

a question...

is it OK if we set the fan speed (using rivatuner) to 100% all the times....will it shorten the GC lifespan..
btw....the sound....not to loud actually..

well , this review is from taiwan . is not my own stuff and review
but recently i just bought pny 8800GT and cm vivapro . the cooler is not that good i expected .
may be due to my hot room . next time test under air cond condition ...

wont shorten the GC lifespan... but fan lifespan i think yes.... just my common sense...

faster fan = cooler GC = longer lifespan

at the same time... pay off with fan lifespan.. .... its better than GC lifespan....anyway it shudnt be naturally die b4 u cant tolerate its performance in future.... ..... means u will most probably replace it b4 it shud die naturally...

so is it ok if i wan to set the fan to 80% or 100% for 24/7...?? my room a bit hot la...
after the fan died (dear GOD..please dont ), i'll change it to aftermarket cooler lor..
i think the GC is more valuable than the fan...

lol talking about lifespan, i think u wont realize it is shorten by how mucch also la and its not stated how long shud it live also i think... anyway u are recomended to set ur fan abit higher depending on ur tolerance of noise... u can always make fan profile for it as i mention earlier so ur card will automatically adjust the speed acording to the temperature... for example:

50'c = 60% speed
55'c = 70% speed and so on....

this both site will help u out,

actually...i already done that...
plus...open up side casing n blow a 16" table fan to it..
idle = 53 on 60% fan...

if i wan to change to new casing (cm690 maybe..) and dont wan to open the side, what do u think the temp will be... so there will be no free air..and no table fan...
sometimes thinking not to have casing at all...

wokeh guys...
i just downloaded the OC utility for Gigabyte 8800GT with custom pcb and overvoltage chip..
now, i dont need to mod the bios or hardmod the card to give more juice to the gpu
Gigabyte 8800gt owners rejoice
