 8800GTS + 12cm Fan
Hi all I just got a bit bored and so did a quick little mod and placed a spare old tsunami dream case fan over my 8800GTS with a view to cool it and the HR-05 NB cooler behind it.
It does both well, the GTS no longer almost burns to the touch nor indeed does the northbridge cooler.
The fan isn't the quietest but was all I had.
The GTS used to idle at 60-62 degrees, now appears to have lowered that to 50-52.
Used to peak @ load to 72-76 degrees, early testing shows it would be hard to push it over 60 degrees.
Haven't tidied wires up yet or tried overclocking potential but tbh I would only max it at 620 core anyway.
