Gtx 295?

[p2501]

So I'm not the only one that has this issue! My XFX GTX295 squeals just like my old BFG 9800GTX.

Atleast it is good for one thing... I could easily tell when the second GPU was finally being used! It sang a "duet"!

Yeah, the missus was laughing when I told her my card was singing for us, lol. Maybe we all should try the nail polish mod and void our warranties?
Naw, I can live with it. It's going to be watercooled, and then I can close the case already, problem gone. ^^;

Hmmm... Where might one be able to read about this "nail polish mod"?

I don't even know in which section it was posted, but it's easy.
Just take the card apart and drown each coil, choke and cap on the card with a good layer of nail polish. It was done on a 280, and it was silent afterwards. While you're at it you can also put on real TIM instead of the cheap stuff nV is using..

YMMV with cyanoacrylate

No such luck here, they are singing the same tune. My next step is to set up a high sensitivity microphone after I install the waterblock.
