I gave in...

Postby nonstop » Wed Jun 06, 2007 1:46 pm

With all the talk of 8800s I decided to try an evga 8800gts supclocked card. Got it, just waiting to install it when I feel like unraveling things.

I'm a little concerned about the stock cooler as the fan looks quite small and noisy so I'll probably go with this.

Nice. Ace and I got the standard 640 versions. I have mine slightly overclocked (all on the stock cooling) and the hottest it gets is 67C. I think it typically runs around 60C.
