XFX 8600 GT Heat Issues

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.

I have 2 back fans both should suck in air?

Rear fans must be OUT! Not in...

You take the words right out of my mouth, without the capital 'out' though ;) :P

Front should take in, side should take in, rear should blow out :D

Input is appreciated...... :D :P :D

Actually i also searched lot of forums regarding XFX 8600GT in all forums the common thing that i got was the card is actually pretty hot.So it normally operates in 85-90 range.

Lol, ok now I'm going to be rude: Change the fan(probably just turn it around) to make the air blow out instead of in :D I think that'll help, at least a few degrees.

And I should say: Still to hot!

My card doesnt reach 60°C at load... Did you try reinstalling the stock sink? Another thermal compound may be better :dance2:

You also wanna take natural condts into consideration your eastern europe region is pretty cool while we have min 40c temp here in India.

That temp is totally good for a card operating in like 10-20 degrees hotter circumstances then we have. The 8600 series are known to be capable of handeling temps of 100 degrees.

So that's why your temp rockets sky high; you live near the equator.

Better buy air conditioners :dance2: .

thats not a bad operating temp i would recommend gettting some more fans though...

i actually bought 2 HHD coolers to help keep my babies cool lol

I'm waiting for the new 295 card to be released from nvidia thinking about upgrading already lol
