Good lord...if I'm looking at that correctly, then that heatsink is only covering maybe 70% of that GPU die. That can't be good right?

What you see is just the IHS. The GPU is much smaller ;)

So dont worry, it's all fine :)

I think I misunderstood your question the first time, The fan is a Silverstone FM121. Other then that I made it myself, I took the frame for the middle fan of the P180 and attached it to two drive bay covers. Cost nothing and works great.:up: I plan on changing the fan with an ultra kaze 2000 soon.

I want to overclock more but a think a got a bad batch, Q801A290. I recently just upped it to 4.0ghz (444*9 1:1) 1.372 vcore. Ram @ 4-4-4-12. 2.1v
It idles @ 34/35, but under Intel burn test I will hit 67/68, With my Tuniq, I thought that Load temp would be lower, Any Ideas?
My case temps range from 30C to 34C when gaming, Any ideas on that or is that okay?

Hoi,

thx :)..............and to answer your question: yes, all by my self..........but it's a 8-pin ATX cable, not PCIe :up:

I did the same with my 24-pin ATX cable. Pretty annoying work :shocked:

??? The Xigmatek cooler is not mine. That rig was just for a friend. I still use Thermalright ^^. However the Xigmatek is quite nice.

That's only possible when I'm able to get a HD48x0 to test it on. Unfortunately T-Rad² and AC don't fit on a 8800GTX :(

No not yet, I want to but I'm afraid that ill damage it. I also wanted to lap my Tuniq while I was at it. Is it hard to do or just time consuming?

Also if I cut out all the fanguards on my P180 do you think that would help with overall noise and cooling?

I dont think so is it hard to lap tuniq, I didnt lap it. but I lapped my cpu.

and yes, if you cut all of the fanguards off, noise goes little bit down and i think airflow increase little bit..

sry 4 my sucky english. :D

You need to stop putting your components on towels.
