Tutorial - Water Cooling 9800 GTX graphic card

[ripmowt]

hi i think i have a cooling issue with my XFX 9800 black ed card. from starT up it runs @ 60 degrees(according to eva precision) - pc specs- win7 64/ 3g ram/ asus m2n vista ed MB/ AMD athlon dual core 5200. it boots ok, runs ok BUT locks up on any game i put on eg SF4. i saw this as an option maybe. any advice?

[LessonComplex]

i hate when you say thermal grease

[xy274]

Wow the card doesn't look so fat anymore.

[erikblazer13]

im about to buy a 9800GTX is this a really good card to play most recent games on, i really dont want a card that will be out of date here in a few months, but i dont want to spend upwards of 200 bucks for a card either, so is this a good card?

[Rodrigoenlu]

Does this works with the GeForce 9800 GTX+ aswell? because i have an SLI system but it gets overheat too fast while playing some games like Left 4 Dead, even i have managed to modify my Cooler Master Cosmos case with 5 more fans.

[ModMyMachine]

@Rodrigoenlu see below

[Metalozedex]

will it fit 9800 gtx+?

[ModMyMachine]

@Metalozedex depends on layout, sometimes it works

[ModMyMachine]

@Metalozedex some did

[jayjayrokz]

Complete...OVERKILL! (Or in this case, OVERCOOL!)

[Techgizmo4444]

will this fit a GTS250

[townending]

Does anyone know if a 8800GTX waterblock will fit on a 9800 GTX?

[ModMyMachine]

@townending no .. wont fit

[einarknutsen]

@townending

if both have crossfire you can get a crossfire bridge and ft them togheter

[I4NI420]

hahah that windows rap ahahah

[guarino85]

ok, sorry! i also have this graphic card and i'm interested in how you have solved cooling problems. Particularly i need explanation about components because i've never done water cooling systems.

thanks!

[guarino85]

ciao! anch'io ho una 9800 gtx+

tu come hai risolto?

[ModMyMachine]

english please :-)

[jango512]

this is a noob question but can u answer this.

Does it matter if the graphic cards is gt and gtx or will installing the cooler be the same?

[ModMyMachine]

it does matter .. gtx needs a full cover waterblock .. gt normally only needs a gpu cooler

[ArmenianSOADfreak]

What are grapic temperature while idling?

And when playing games?

nice vid

[ModMyMachine]

really cant tell because its not my graphic card .. minus 25 °C at least compared to air cooling

[ModMyMachine]

write to info  @ aqua-computer . de

[kodai666]

I'm sorry, but I dont see the 9800 water block on your site. Could you please link it and give a price?

[ModMyMachine]

sorry ... sold out

[spangdal]

Is this a tutorial using the GX2 fullcover? Or is the 9800 GTX version off shelves?

[ModMyMachine]

9800 GTX

[ModMyMachine]

around 50°C

[LudacrisSs2k]

i have an 9800gtx+ with the fan still on , i keep the fan on Auto , so it doesn't go above 67% , and when i play a game , usually cod4 mp , it reaches 60° (with the fan at 67%). But if i turn it up to 99% it stays on 50° but it's too noisy. So i think i'm going to put it on mine too. Thx for the tut.

[coolL9457]

i'm having issues with my graphics... not an over heating iv'e checked it each time. ever since i got my 1st fault from EA Red alert 3 each one of my games get this "shatterd screen" issue that gets annoying.... any theories? im desperate!!!!!!!!!!

[ModMyMachine]

mail the vendor.

[darknessofkrish]

Great Tutorial, but the music was ANNOYING AS HELL, very distracing while trying to listen to you especially with those OS sounds going off over and over it was driving me NUTS the whole way Dx

[ModMyMachine]

Oooops sorry .. but great idea of the songwriter isnt it ? anyway .. will turn down music next time.

[retsnom92]

You dont put the fan part back on? I saw a gtx that was hooked up to this hydro thing and it had the fan and the copper looking plate.

[ModMyMachine]

Then ... what´s the use of watercooling if i put the stock fan back on ? Whoever did this did not know what hes doing :-)

[retsnom92]

i have to show you... type in google gtx 9800 + hydro and one website near the top shows the card.

[retsnom92]

i cant post the link cause youtube sucks balls but type in google ECS 9800... about the 3rd link is the website.

[ModMyMachine]

found it ... never seen this before. doesn´t make any sense ... ECS ... contact me ... i show you better way :-)

[retsnom92]

lol well i guess they did a kinda hybrid cause its water cooled and fan cooled lol.

[darknessofkrish]

also I think the Xfx design on the card fan is the sexiest xD

[ModMyMachine]

yeah .. looks real nice

[ModMyMachine]

no, unfortunately its another layout

[Cotton926]

i got three of these but air cooled...

[PushsVideos]

question: By doing this will it reduce the Power this cards needs?

[ModMyMachine]

unfortunately not

[ModMyMachine]

yes .. but many times they do the whole card. only some do their own cards

[ModMyMachine]

in fact most of the cards are produced by nvidia .. then everybody puts a sticker on it :-)

[ModMyMachine]

ohh that sucks .. take xfx ...

[STAModding]

Frage:

Is der auch kompatibel mit der standard EVGA Karte?

Suche nämlich einen guten Waterblock

[ModMyMachine]

Die sollte Referenzlayout haben. Also ja. Im Zweifel mal bei EVGA nachfragen.

[STAModding]

Vielen dank für die wirklich fixe antwort =)

Nochne frage, wär es möglich wenn du mir ein bild machen könntest wo du einzeichnest Wo genau die WLP rechts hinmuss? (gpu und ram sind klar). hab das leider nicht richtig gesehen auch nach 3-4 mal anschauen nicht.

[ModMyMachine]

Ist in unserer Anleitung bei. Im Grunde genommen alle Teile wo vorher Pads waren.

[tombuckley91]

Great tutorial :) I watched all of them so far (well all the english ones haha) and think you do a good job. Has been quite along time since your last one. Keep up the good work. 5/5

[ModMyMachine]

Had a lot of work to do .. i have more in spare atm. So new ones coming up the next days/weeks.

Thx

[Xen8]

nice windows xp rap

[ModMyMachine]

Exzess One ;-)

[apophis3636]

will this fit on my asus 9800gtx?

[ModMyMachine]

if it is reference design .. yes

[britrb32]

As you have to disconnect a fan, do you have to change any settings in BIOS to cancell any warnings like you have to do for a CPU?

[ModMyMachine]

No,

i heard of this on some GTX280 cards, but not on the 9800 GTX card.

[britrb32]

Thanks very much for the lightening quick reply mate, and great video 5/5.

Have fun,

Brian :)

[ModMyMachine]

you´re welcome

[ModMyMachine]

Wow .. thx. Never thought of "fans" :-)
