What sort of temps were you getting from the 480 on air?

Any reason your client didn't want to go down the watercooling route?

He wanted the case in one piece!

To be honest you would be pushin the limits of the case to fit a good watercooling loop inside aswell.

Is that your stress testing?

I presume your running SMP or Bigadv on it, What sort of PPD are you getting?

no our stress testing has been a mix of everything
we are folding on it to make sure everything is running smoothly [and OcUKs resident folder has been dying to get his hands on this]

we folded a 6023 and 6701 SMP

and a 2684 Bigadv

the ppd is amazing

screenshots uploading for you now

Why? 480's run fine on air. I'm sick of having this conversation with people!

480s are fine on air. I have had SLI 480s in this today and had no issues whatsoever

the 480 sli had no significant heat increase over the 5970 i tested with this morning.

breaking news: high end graphics cards run hot!

in other more exciting news...
