it's because my PSU 6 pin cables are damn stiff near the ends x_x
i bend them around 80-90 degree angle 4890 vaporx is hitting 80c on core & 90c on shader/mem when running 1680x1050 4xAA furmark, i think i need better exhaust... |

What .. .
you OC is somemore, Well, it is still not hitting the wall before failing or having artifact loh .. but it's surely not a wise choice to keep it for long run .. |

u could get a PCI slot blower if u want better exhaust... but they tend to be a lil noisy..guess a fan controller or undervolting them would be a good choice.

thx for the suggestion guys
actually the OC was for furmark only... i see 90c on vram i oso sweating bullets... max OC was 925mhz / 1120mhz, go beyond got artifacts d yea, i game at 850 / 1000 for now. after 3 months of v351, i would say air flow problem is not enough exhaust. wanna remove the rivets for HD cage, but scare later too heavy handed hmmm decision decisions... speakin of which i'm planni to get Xonar DX to pair up with ATH-AD300. good budget pair up ? |

never heard the xonar but i do know AT's sound signature.
guess it should be a good match...especially for music...gaming should be improved too. |

no place to let the tubes pass tru.. blocked by edges of PSU and gfx card.. and it's not long enuff..
and yes, it's not detachable coz it's factory sealed.. |
