    Sapphire X1950XTX - fan issues

    I've checked, and they said I can exchange it within two weeks. It might be a good idea to do that, just to be safe, it can't hurt. I might monitor it for another week and see how things go, I've got time to spare after all.

    Sapphire X1950XTX - fan issues

    Thanks for the advice all. I've installed ATITool and had a play around with it, and since it was installed I haven't had any further instances of the fan powering down. But, I'm keeping a close eye on the situation. I do yeah, every time. My biggest concern is this: when I first built...

    Sapphire X1950XTX - fan issues

    I've been using my new card for about a week now. I was playing a game for a good half an hour, and I got an ATI warning message saying my graphics card temperature was getting too high and that it was lowering the speed to compensate. I took off the side of my case when back in Windows, only...

    New PC - dud motherboard?

    I have ruled them out, they're the ones I'm using currently, and worked fine with my friend's working machine. Good point, but the fact is I took my video card out and put it into my friend's working machine (which has the exact same motherboard) and it worked fine. Unfortunately the stage...

    I second this. You can't actually view anything on the site without one, it seems. :(

    Core 2 Duo Heatsink/Fan?

    Thanks for the advice guys. I do plan to overclock at some point, so I guess it's worth it to go that bit extra and get the Ninja. I previously didn't realize (have found out since) that all retail Intel CPUs come with a stock standard heatsink/fan combo. So it was a slight surprise to open...

    Core 2 Duo Heatsink/Fan?

    Recently I purchased the Intel Core 2 Duo Processor E6600, and I had planned to buy the Scythe Ninja Heatpipe Cooler SCNJ-1100 to go along with it. When I opened the box for the CPU, I realized that it actually came with an Intel heatsink/fan included. My question is: would this included...

    Possible DNS error

    Hopefully this thread won't reveal how much of a n00b I am... While trying to set up ICS (don't ask why I'm still using it), I've run into a problem. For ease of reference, there are two PCs on the network; let us refer to them as: Main - the PC hosting the 'net Secondary - the other...
