anyone here watercooled their 4800 series gC?

yea...i'm having the same dilemma as u man....damn scare later when custom cooler and oc version come out with cheaper price...i'm gonna go crying....

Wait a bit longer, till mid August, great custom design for HD4850 and HD4870 coming from Gainward. Save your money buying 3rd party cooler and risk voiding the warranty.

YES, please see Coolice review on the signature below.

See my reply above. Patience will save you money. Just remember to lookout for Gainward.

how much is the the new gainward 4870 ?

thanks ;D

woah. mid august... can i tahan until that? >.<" thanks for the replies!

Asus is coming out any non reference card?

idle 78c
load 89c
izzit normal???like gonna kaboom soon

i believe the description of this thread state clearly what you should do before asking.

i know that also
but the pc going 24/7 unstoppable
izzit safe for 24/7 wif that temp

i believe this is another recurring question, and someone mentioned his 6600 had been running around 70-80 C for few years, and it is still fit.

That's me! Yup, my 6600gt idle aroun 60-70c, load 95c, now still running good at my hometown. Last time is my bro using and he never off the comp and he do those 3d things alot.

Any picture or spec of the of Gainward, custom coolers? I might this both brands PowerColor HD4870 1GB DDR5 PCS or Gainwards non reference .

I yesterday tried on PowerColor HD4870 512MB DDR5 reference cards, fan speed set at 40% idle 41C load at 55C in air con room. The performance are great no lag on COD4 max out 1680 x1050 multiplayer online even 48 players gameplay , instead the 8800GTS G92 might feel abit sluggish with this huge amount players in game.

lag or no lag is depends on ur interenet speed and the host.

Yes i test both same server same pings, no matter how the 8800GTS can felt slight sluggish when huge smoke or swing the mouse.

how do i turn on overdrive cant really understand the 1st post coz my overdrive function disabled.

if ur psu no 8pin pcie connector it wont show
if got want to enable click on the red lock button

u mean i need a PSU with 2 6pin connector?
