Cooling A 9800GX2
Oct 26, 2008
I just check the temp on my 9800GX2, and while playing a video in Media Player the GPU temp is around 87 degrees celsius, and the PCB is around 78! Surely that's too hot? After playing games they both go above the 90 degree mark, even to the 100 degree - how can I cool this mammoth card down? Some games it gets hot and the video card just shuts down and I have to reset. I have a cooler master CM690 case, with a front intake fan (120mm), a rear exhaust fan (90mm), a side of the case fan over the CPU (120mm, exhaust), and a side of the case fan over the GFX card (120mm, intake, blows air over the gfx card). Maybe I need to change the configuration of the fans? Or get something a hell of a lot better for them? I regularly use a can of compressed air inside the case, and on all the fans to keep it dust free.

I talked with Asus cause i wanted to buy a HD For my Notebook. So, they said it would work fine, but it would get too hot, and that i should buy a cool pad for my computer. Which Coolpad should i choose? I want one that is very powerful, and that works great to cool the computer.

right latest question, I am really considering going upto using GTX graphics cards maybe either the 280 or 285 (not sure as yet), but as we all know the standard passive cooling it has is a bit, well, crap.
So i want to find out the best cooling solution apart from water cooling as i don't really want that much maintenance, is there anything different i can use or is that the only thing i can use for best results.

i know that water cooling is less noisy, takes up less room and cools more efficiently. but how much do the temperatures drop on average from standard air coolers? i want to have a go at decent overclocking when i build my new rig (not what it drops down to, how much it cools down )=

Exclusive: Oil Immersion Cooling Goes Mainstream with Hardcore PC's ReactorWritten by Gordon Mah Ung 10/20/08 at 01:00:00 PM. Stop. You had us at oil submersed motherboard, CPU and GPUs. You didn’t even have to dunk the SSDs, PSU or create a custom motherboard and bullet resistant tank too to convince us that you’re really hard core, umm, Hardcore.
Of course, if you stare too hard at the tank, you’ll miss all the heavenly glory that the Hardcore PC truly is. From its beautiful aluminum case, to its top port routing and the easy to access hard drives, every centimeter of the machine oozes custom computing. And we can honestly say that after tinkering with the most exotic PCs available on Earth for a decade now. What Hardcore is trying to do is so over the top that no one has ever tried it before on a production machine.
But before Hardcore can ascend to take its place among the top performance PC makers, there are an awful lot of questions to answer. Like can they really make and sell these babies for how much the company claims it can? Does it really work? To find the answer to that read on.
