i know you had said you had bought the giant 3 vga cooler. i am using this also on my 5950. i was just wondering how it worked for you and how you installed it, and what thermal paste you used??? if you could, i would like you to tell me yur before and after temps.....thanks in advance. :) :beer:

works fine with Gecube X800Pro

paste = ceramique only paste i'd ever use on cards as it's non-conductive and easy to clean up

before @564/605
gpu idle: 36C
gpu load: 64-66C

TT Giant3 + 60x38mm delta 50cfm 8800rpm fan (never used the stock paper thin reverflow fan)

after @606/606
gpu idle: 28-31C
gpu load: 44-48C

HTH

hmmm....thats a lot of rpm's, is it loud??? also where you buy? don't see it at newegg. :scratch:

[eva2000]

it's loud when set on high speed.. i connect it to Thermaltake fanspeed controller for high/med/low = 100%/75%/50% speeds on med and low it's okay
