[shengxlong]

@girlsdrinkfeck Well, after using this cooler i'm playing Crysis at 39ºC and 44ºC At final boss.

[girlsdrinkfeck]

@shengxlong , cool , but fuck paying £50 still , considering my mod costed me £3 and temps are aroudn 60c on full load

hi can you tell me say your runing a game what temp do you get compared to the old cooler. thinking of getting x2 of these or should i go for watercooling

[kiselk]

A major issue with these cards is the VRM temp. Even watercooling can't keep it below 80sC as far as i know (search for an exact model of WCblock overview to make sure you are not going to waste your money).

[kiselk]

make sure you have got two-slot space between pci-x. my mobo is AsusP5QPro

i've added a link to the description of the video at the right to the results with accelero. sorry got no results for the stock cooler.

When taking off the stock cooler (after all screws are taken out) how much force did you have to use to pry it off?

[kiselk]

Pretty much. Thermal grease was old and very dry, so I was almost tearing it off. But really check all the screws!!! My last one was found under the warranty sticker, and I had a chance to break the baby until I finally gave up trying to take it apart and started to search for the last screw!

[kaisenachiuchiha]

Ok, what brand of video card did you have? I have a sapphire, and I will be buying this heatsink soon.

[kiselk]

its sapphire with lara-style girl on a box

[kaisenachiuchiha]

Ok, I have the same....and I still have the box.... (I keep my hardware boxes.)

4870x2 with accelero extreme should fit in coolermaster 690 advanced 2 case?

[kiselk]

CM690 on the video, but i am not sure if it is 'advanced 2'. With my case i have about half-an-inch left between the tail of the cooler and my hdd cart(casing, rack call it as you want, i mean the thing where all hdds are mounted). The pity thing is even though i've moved to 2.5 SSD i can't remove the hdd rack because it is sealed not screwed. So double check the length first if you edition of cm690 is different to mine.

[neoonik16]

advanced 2 has 12 inch for gpu, this is enough for this cooler?

[kiselk]

i'll try to get a ruler by tomorrow, believe me or not i dont have one :)

[adamknox]

NICE :D i wish theyd make that cooler the stocke cooler lol does it add much Length to the actual card?

[kiselk]

It adds about an inch or so. Half an inch is added by a sink and half an inch more 3 heat pipes.
