I was debating the same thing and ended up getting a 970 to replace my 670 SLI setup. Much happier. No SLI issues and it runs Tomb Raider @ 1080p with everything maxed out at over 60fps. I decided on the 970 as I didnt want to splash out on a 980Ti when Pascal is only months away. My plan is to...
could it be that my fan is spinning the wrong way?
I can feel no air coming out from the back of the card (even with fans on full), only underneath the fan?
I'll take it apart tonight and make sure there isn't another dust clog inside it. Cheers for the advice.
Cheers. The fan on my reference Palit card draws air into the case through the vents on the card and blows it down. Should it be be blowing air across the GPU then?
yeah it is a reference cooler, thanks. is there an aftermarket cooler that you'd recommend? if i'm reseating the heatsink, may aswell fit another cooler. picked up another gtx670 off ebay for cheap to go sli, so want to get the temps down. cheers.
Thanks for the advice with the fan. The one on the card was completely clogged up! Cleaned this out and now getting about 50-55 at idle and about 95-97 under load. Better but still way too hot. Will attempt to reseat the heatsink tomorrow. What thermal paste would you recommend? Its the stock...
Hi. I have a GTX 670 which is idling at 70-80 degrees C and gets to over 100 deg C when under load. Does anyone know what may be the problem? The fan is always load but recently has gotten worse. Cheers.
Wait a month. Get him an ipad mini. Btw, my eldest son has an ipad 3, and before that he had an ipad 1 at the age of 9. I may be biased, but he is extremely polite and in no way acts like a spoilt brat. That is quite a sweeping generalisation to make. As long as the kid understands the value and...
Hi. Thanks for replying. I dont have any other brackets that I know about! The cooler was bought in 2008. I guess the LGA775 cooler fastening is not common with the 1155 then? Cheers.
Hi. I've got the above cooler which I currently use with an Q6600. I have just ordered an i5 3570 along with a Gigabyte Z77 mobo. Does anyone know if this cooler will still fit the new CPU and mobo given they are different sockets? Cheers.
Hi. Thinking of getting back into PC gaming after five years away with consoles. Used to know a bit but not too sure whats best anymore. Looking at a small form factor build. What do you guys reckon to this? Any parts I should change? Also, do modular power supplies come with the actual cables...
It certainly eleviates the issue somewhat. But the edges of the antenna are still exposed and if you grip the phone tightly, the signal will still diminish.
For anyone who has a reservation at an apple store and is taking advantage of the o2 early upgrade offer. I've just spoken with Apple and O2 and you have to have paid the early upgrade fee to O2 before you go and pick up the iPhone 4 on Thursday. The Apple guy said that O2 would be accepting...
Got an invite for the beta the other day and I have to say it blows every other mobile slingplayer client out of the water. It's not as pretty as the iphone version but the speed at which it starts streaming is really impressive. Channel changes are almost instant (1-2 secs) on my Desire whereas...
U can get network drives to connect at login by adding them to your login items under preferences. Just drag them from finder or desktop to the login items window.
Should be noted that Swirly MMS will not work if you are on an official O2 iPhone tarriff as they do not and will not (iknow, iasked) enable MMS on an iPhone tariff though they will let you change to another tariff but then you will lose all the iphone tariff benefits of visual voicemail, free...
The multitasking is superb. Playing tunes and surfing the web while email is pushed to me through my Yahoo IMAP account is brilliant but it should be with a 700MHz processor and 512MB of RAM!. Even with 5 or 6 web pages open, it is as smooth as silk. This is something which cannot be said for my...
