I plan to get fans for it of course. I doubt passive cooling will do much but ....its always better to have a fan blowing it. Google for that cooler..its good stuff. but for now..I pray and hope my PC is fine. Added on January 14, 2008, 5:04 pm =D refer to my post haha its good stuff. no I haven't bought it yet. or try the Thermaltake HR-03 or something. but that one mahal...RM209 or something  |

QUOTE(zamanjaafar @ Feb 5 2008, 08:10 PM) my x2 4000 already at its limit for my vcore. Wouldnt like increasing more due to temps. Would OC-ing the card more would generate more points and in what range? maybe 200-300 marks? your card is on bottle neck. overclock the 8800gt only when you had the fans 100% all the time or get a new vga cooler. but then your 3dmark won't increase much due to the bottleneck. |

QUOTE(pikacu @ Feb 6 2008, 07:14 PM) they absorb and sent it out to airspace =/ an aluminum case plays a significant role of heat resistance. if your mobo is hot, so is everything else in it and the closest hardware to the chassis is the mobo. do the mathDo you think that the aluminum case can dissolve the heat just like that?  |
