BlackLine Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 Yeah... the 250mm one is really big, but silent.Best of all is that you can change the way of airflow... in or out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bizarre™ Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 I saw a casing that has a very big fan attached in front of it (some kind of design, it's looking cool though :) ), but I forgot to inquire about its name :dance2: . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sumant30 Posted November 13, 2008 Author Share Posted November 13, 2008 Well the latest update regarding my temp is it is fully under control as i have got 80mmx2 fans and one i have mounted on the card due to which my card temperature is not crossing 90 and i have tested this with latest game Far Cry 2.. :D now my operating temperature is 85 and max temp goes to 88. :( :( <_< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackLine Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 Still high temps...One option is watercooling and the other is to not play games on that card :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sumant30 Posted November 15, 2008 Author Share Posted November 15, 2008 I think 85 is ok temp bcoz my frnd is having 4870 dual slot cooler still his operating temp during gaming is 85 also no question arises of playin no games bcoz i wouldn't have bought the card if i didn't want to play the games. ;) :D :sneaky: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That might help, I guess that fan is your back fan and you have one in the side panel or in the front? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shought Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 Yeah, I understand, but if you could make your back fans blow air out instead of sucking air in that would be better I think... The side fans should suck air in as far as I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
