Old stock cooler : IDLE--56C LOAD--76C AC Twin Turbo(7V): IDLE--42C LOAD--50C AC Twin Turbo(12V): IDLE--41C LOAD--49C Honestly, not trying to be funny, but that's why i love water... my 8800GT never went over 40c on load whilst overclocked to 700/1000... and it's still quieter than a fan... now my ...

Ok so i finally got the cooler and installed it(shoddily I might add :) (Playing THE Witcher) Old stock cooler : IDLE--56C LOAD--76C AC Twin Turbo(7V): IDLE--42C LOAD--50C AC Twin Turbo(12V): IDLE--41C LOAD--49C So it looks like it could run it on the 7V with very similar results but seeing as its s...

Both. So suggestions and input are most welcome. I will see what I can find about this particular cooler you are looking at. I've seen one good review(9/10 coolers tested) where it performed quite well. I would go for the S1(which I think is a great cooler-or at least what I've read) but its a bit ...

Sorry man what exactly are you trying to link to...? The Zalman cooler, review of the Accelero s1...?
?

I have a XFX 8800GT Alpha dog edition that is running a little too hot for my liking (load 92C) and the whining of the fan is also getting to me a bit. There are artifacts on the screen when it gets hot and I have decided to take the plunge and get an aftermarket cooler for it. Now are there any 880...

I love this anime, I thinks its a love or hate thing with it

And the manga just adds LOADS more awesomeness....!

Actually the first time i saw it was when the sci fi channel was still running. Would stay up every sat&sunday night to watch the animes they had at 12. Was hard work but what else was available anyway.

Looks like Neon Genesis Evangelion (Platinum Collection – Director’s Cut) starts next month, at least that's what the June edition of Dish says. Yeah. I'be seen it before, and wouldn't mind seeing it again. Not the greatest for me personally, but very entertaining at times nevertheless. Who knows, ...

Remember when you were between the ages of 6 and 12. You were able to climb the tallest tree, jump from the top of you’re house’s roof, you were able paddle you’re bike much faster than anyone else, you stepped in and protected you’re friends when they were bullied never caring if the bullies outnu...

Hi can you please recommend fan placement for my case? http://img255.imageshack.us/img255/2611/casefansnt1.gif The dark blue circles are where fans are already placed. An intake and exit fan. Now i have 3 more fans to place(all pretty much same CMF(1200RPM). The red circle is where my HSF is(antec t...

Sweet, thanks was a bit worried 600w wouldnt be enough. Think I might try locate a Q6600 G0...seems the Q6600 runs at 105...and Q6600 with G0 at 95...better for overclocking . Want to overclock...nothing hectic...but wanna see the 3.4GHZ mark :twisted: ? Fahrenheit ne? Not degrees C otherwise that ...

And the P5k mobo from PCint is also R1025 excl. vat if i remember right.

Just dont expect responses to your e-mails from them. Phoning them is fine...but their email support is pathetic to say the least.

... and if the time you spend in-game (remember, time flies when you're not in real-life ;) ) equals several weeks or months?

8800GTS 512 isn't out yet first of all. And will be about a R1000 more expensive than a 8800GT.
Nvidia make the graphics cards, and then they are branded with stickers later eg. asus, inno etc. Only the warranty will differ and the OC etc. So there is no real difference between brands.

Do yourself a favour and look for prices at Pcint.co.za, also digitalsaonline has the CM 690 for R664!

Damn you almost had me excited Thats just a 8800GT review.
