I have the accelero cooler, but for some reason it crashes when gaming after about 15-20min :(. The temps were nice, and it made a lot less sound, but in the end I had to switch back to my stock cooler.
I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling this cooler 3 times and it still doesn't work...
yeah, i was thinking about using a 4870x2 with either a 5870 or a 5970, but it's not possible. I don't want to get another 4870x2 because the one i have now idles at 85c! It's a very hot card. I also only have a Thermaltake tough power 750 PSU. I don't think it could hand two 4870x2 in...
I have a 4870x2 right now and i'm wondering if there is any big performance boast if I get a 5970? If anyone has upgraded from a 4870x2 please share your opinions.
Also, can you cross fire these two cards?
Thanks!
Well I just super cleaned my PC with this big ass air compressor my dad has. I played team fortress 2 for about 1h30 and it didn't crash where as before it crashed in like 20min.
So, I guess dust was the problem. I'll try out another game and see how that goes.
When the game crashes it either goes straight to the desktop or my game freezes and my computer is unresponsive and I have to manually restart my pc.
I'm at work now, but i'll be home soon and will start cleaning out the dust. I'll report back later.
No I haven't. I just looked into my pc case and my cpu fan has a bunch of dust on it. Could this be the problem? I'm going to clean it out and report back...
This problem has just started happening a couple days ago. When ever I play a game, about 10-30min into that game I get either a crash to desktop or a blue screen. I mostly get blue screens though. I haven't changed anything in my system. But for some reason when I play a game like Dawn of war 2...
I've never had a multi screen setup, but I have always wondered if the black bar that is made from the gap between the screens ever distract you from the game? It seem really weird having that black bar there.
what do you guys think?
I've noticed that the new cooler comes with two power adapters that are required to be installed. they're like extension cables. there is one 6 pin to 6 pin and an 8 pin to 6 pin.
My PSU doesn't have two 6 pins so I had to use another adapter to make one. Should I connect the 8 pin into the...
Hi! I just finished installing my new Accelero Xtreme 4870x2 into my PC. My idle temps have gone down from 85c to about 40c! The only problem I'm getting is that when ever I play a game my computer crashes after about 10 min. This just started happening right after I installed the cooler.
So...

ati 4870x2
4gb corsair dominator
biostar T-power motherboard
150gb raptor HD
