Got a Gainward Geforce 6800GT GS AGP.
As owners of Gainward's GS cards will know, these come with RAM copper sinks, and 2x non-standard fans which are mounted on a 'bracket' which is then screwed on the card.
At Desktop, with fan speed at 55%, my temperatures are: CPU 48.250c, PCB 33.125c. Pretty decent if you ask me.
The fans are like hurricanes when they are at 100%. IIRC, 3D temperatures for the CPU hit 57c - nothing to cause me concern.
The problem is, the fans are getting rattly so I'm looking for a replacement soloution.
So I want a cooler which can cool the card down to the same temperatures as my current stock cooler. If I get lower temperatures, that's a bonus in my eyes.
Noise isn't too much of an issue - I've been hardened-up by the stock cooler.
It'd be nice to have something quieter or of the same noise level - any louder, and I'll be humming and harring.
Not going to set a budget for the cooler. As long it's reasonable for the price, I don't mind. If there are any better which OcUK don't stock, name the item but (obviously) not the store.
Cheers!
