Sapphire Radeon X1950 XT, well it is running so hot! - 2007/01/06 19:44
Hey guys. Finally, I'm no more busy, I had a few servers to mount and send them all around the Canada. So, I just bought a Sapphire Radeon X1950 XT 256MB, and people told me that this card run pretty hot. So, stock cooling, into an Antec Nine Hundred, I got a full temp in ATITool of 78°C, at 60%. I tried to put a Zalman VF900-Cu, to be able to overclock this card, and because it was noisy.
I've installed it, with copper ramsink. I tried with AS5 and Zalman Thermal Paste, and you know what? The card goes to 95°C and could go higher. So, anyone got this card? What cooling you got on? I was thinking about the Accelero x2, Evercool Turbo 2 or Vantec Iceberg 6. Thanks.
