    What gaming video card lasted you the longest ?

    Add me to the list of eVGA GTX 260 (216) owners. Bought it back in March of 2009 for $127 and it is still running in my main computer. It came with a lifetime warranty and I am waiting for it to crap out to see what eVGA would replace it with. Thing just keeps going and going and going...

    Acer H233H.bmid - Anybody here own one?

    I just picked one up last Friday from Best Buy as well. I am very pleased with it so far. No stuck pixels and it looks great. I bought for my new i7 build which isn't complete yet. So I have only gamed with it using my old 6800 GTO. I haven't noticed any lag, but my 6800 struggles to keep...

    Blower Specs Question

    So I am looking to buy a Sunon blower and have been checking out the specs (see here: http://www.sunon.com.tw/products/pdf/dc-blower/b9733.pdf). Now, I am interested in partnering the blower with a Fan Mate, so I need to keep the power consumption to 6 Watts (per the specs of the Fan Mate). I...

    Dell 6800 PCI E

    Consumer9000: One other question regarding your Sunun blower mod. That blower is rated at 6.7 Watts whereas the Fan Mate sets a max at 6 Watts. Any issues with using that blower with the Fan Mate? I am assuming since you are running the blower at less than full speed it is not an issue? I...

    Dell 6800 PCI E

    Thanks for the info! This is just what I was looking for. And the link is a great idea. I currently have a sunon 80 mm case fan (pulled from an old comp) rigged below where yours is placed (amazing what some yarn and packaging peanuts will do!). It helps cool, but it is loud. I'll take a...

    Dell 6800 PCI E

    Consumer9000: Are you using one of your cooling heatsink/fan combos to achieve that? I am trying to decide what to slap on my GTO. Currently unlocked and overclocked to 402/1101 on stock cooling (no problems/artifacts that I can see). Typically idles at 57C with loads in the 80s (maxes in...

    NV5 Silencer worth it?

    Thanks Tenchi4U, I had actually read your post before, but never put 2 and 2 together to realize the difference and implication. It is clear now. By the way, did your rev 2 come with a second back plate (PCI cover) that is vented so that we won't have to hack up our 6800 plate? Thanks.

    NV5 Silencer worth it?

    Tenchi4U: Can you explain what you mean by this? How does the rev 2 differ such that you can't put more TIM on the contacts? Does the rev 2 make better contact out of the box than the rev 1? Thanks.
