Ok I have a 9800p 128m. Its a built by ATI version. I'm currently making a chiller and I was thinking it'd be easy to add a line to my video card. I don't have a water block for it (and that might be a reason why I might not do it $$) but I might be able to get one. Would It be worth it to cool it with my AC chiller? How high do you think it could go? Anyone have exp with this? Thx

as a general rule to main reason to use a chiller is to cool multiple components. It is defenately worth while to put a block on there. I dont know numbers on the 9800's too well but I would guess 600mhz~core if you get around 500 with a hsf

to answer your questions in order: yes it would be worth it, it depends on several factors, & yes, i have some exp... use the mcw50 WB

Sweet. So I'll do some searching but where are some good volt mods for the 9800p and how about some condensation prevention guides (for a video card)

For caondensation rpoofing check out the stickies in the phase change forum, the 3 new guids sticky has a condensation proofing guide.
