    GIGABYTE Radeon HD 7970 OC (GV-R797OC-3GD) Video Card Review @ [H]

    i have a stock gigabyte 7970 running @ 1200mhz core the stock fan ramps to about 70% (custom profile) to keep her under 75 degrees I also use a portable aircon unit in the room to keep room temp down. (aircon gets room temp down to 27 degrees) The graphics card fan is roughly the same noise...

    did a bit more reading and between different metals, if the temperature and humidity are higher the chemical V(voltage) between different metals needs to be smaller, corrosion occurs faster at higher temps sounds like crappy zalman engineers know this, hence the instructions says not put in...

    Galvanic corrosion is an electrochemical process in which one metal corrodes preferentially to another when both metals are in electrical contact and immersed in an electrolyte. TT : having copper on block, alluminum on other end, connected by plastic pipe, these wont be connected by...

    im looking at the zalman reserator http://www.zalman.com/ENG/product/Product_Read.asp?Idx=183 how much cooling power does this have in comparison to traditional 3x120 watercooling setups? i am going to run a long water hose outside the house, the passive zalman dissipating all that juicy heat...

    decibel numbers dont mean that much and are subjective, the opinion of what fan noise is a good conclusion

    XFX R7970 Black Edition Video Card Review @ [H]

    Kyle, have you tried to bring the voltage back to default and see what oc you get? Using higher than default volts only hindered my OC. Gigabyte stock card Higher temperature was one of the contributing factors in crashes\artifacts, but voltage raising directly hurt the OC performance...

    I find it a little strange everyone is saying max ram OC's running 3d mark 11 i can max out RAM too...... but over 1450ram, the score goes down, so i set to 1420. Has everyone been testing their 3dm11 scores with 10mhz increments till score goes down? I know it takes time but your 2mega...

    I found heaven usefull for finding artifact point in the card. 3dm11 would freeze sometimes, but as it is short run, doesnt heat the card enough. BF runs a good temperature, would consider an hour of this a good test. On an older game, that only runs 60% gpu load, this game actually crashed...
