hoping for this CNY more nice used stuffs bombards towards garage sales as everybody upgrading their hardwares after getting ang pau...

hah, i dun think many stuff will bombards in this few days,
but maybe next week,
coz this week everyone going back home town...
hehe, i am preparing $$ bullet for next week~

dear all. i am not sure if this is the correct place to ask but can anyone pm me some shops in penang that stocks water cooling parts such as copper blocks, radiator etc etc? thank you for your help.

i never saw any shop at penang which is selling all those watercooling parts.or maybe i am miss looked??

i never saw in penang also. i have a few friends working in comp retail shops and tried ordering from them but their company is kind of reluctant haih. i don't want to order from outstation ppl and then if faulty and needs warranty very mah fan.

There are none in penang worth buying, I'm very sure of it. Thermaltake & gigabyte watercooling sets are available in some shops, but considering the price, don't bother. For that money you can easily get aircooling that will outperform those watercooling sets. If you want to go watercooling just for the experience, get the set ngbh is selling, its a lot cheaper, and will outperform those Thermaltake sets and is probably on par with the Gigabyte despite being cheaper. It won't be able to fight with RM250+ aircooling and defintely not proper watercooling sets, but considering the price, you have nothing to complain. If you want to go watercooling for the performance, go all the way and spend the money to get a decent set from metalzone.

they torture my rig non-stop about 20 hours per days,
torture the GC with full load with all high setting in games,
kena 2 times restart and screen stuck now...

should i flash to normal one or just stick with this?
and get a proper cooler?

if normal use by me,
wont have such problem,
coz i wont play games more than 2 hours...

yeah..default is bettr (lifecycle)...
unless u r type of person who frequently change ur gc than nevermind la coz u will not use it for long time..

haha, i am a fast changing guy,
i am going to downgrade,
now looking for 2nd hand 3850,
looking for his iceq3 one...

i hv done b4 flashing bios to my gfx with my fren..hehe but im didnt like to recall the step coz its using command line btw u need the previous stock bios..also the software to flash it...forgot the name..u'll put both previous bios n software into disket then using command line to flash the bios..done 2ps my gfx b4 with him..one x800xl to x850xt pe...one 7900gto to 7900gtx

google it out already..most if the steps need dos-mode..which i think i don't dare to do cuz i really don't have any idea what im must n mustn't do..hm..now..but if flash the bios to the default one..will it really works?Will it void the warranty??

what must i do???

A. Wait for anybody who can offer a hand to flash the bios for me?
B. Send the GC straight for RMA



planning to sell it off that day..but seems the market price not worth for 8800GTS..juz decided to keep it..but very sad that this happens...

yeah need to done tru dos..but u need to have previous bios.. i mean ur stock bios b4 u flashed to current bios..hmm i think better find sum1 can do it n for sure need the previous bios too..if rma take time worr

hm...if its guaranteed can fix the problem...i guess i'll take option A.
but if i already flashed it..will it void the warranty??
then if its not fixed although i've flashed it..then afraid if i send for RMA..still cant do any good cuz of the warranty issue..

nope dont think void waranty coz there nothing tear the gfx unless u got burn mark or else while oc it..yeah i thnik u take 1st option..c it can b fix or not..save time..if cant then baru u send ur gfx rma
