QUOTE Sapphire has chosen to remove the temperature based fan control mechanism from their cooling solution. The fan will always run at the same speed, no matter if you run an idle system in Antarctica or under full load in the middle of the Saudi Desert. When asked, Sapphire replied that they "noticed that on many systems the problem is that the fan always starts and stops - at different temperatures. So we decided to always run at the same quiet fan speed". http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/Sapphir...0_Toxic/25.html This post has been edited by celciuz: Oct 19 2008, 06:29 PM |

How do i know either i running DX10 or DX10.1? I'm using Vista SP1 atm. Online updates dint show the directx thinggy but dxdiag show DX10.
Btw any ATI4870x2 users around? Wow my card is HOT. ATI overdrive show around 70-85c when idle to full load crysis. Btw the manual fan doent work even i turn to 100% still same. Scary is it all ATI4870 or x2 hot like this? No issues on heavy gaming? |

i think that is normal temp for 4870x2
If u got Vista SP1, you already have DX10.1, but none of games today support DX10.1 due to TWIMTBP politics. Just hope that upcoming FarCry2 really support DX10.1 |

Someone should test 8.11 beta since they claimed 20% increase in crysis performance. |
