Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
It was not totally on the ram and GPU. You REALLY need to put a nice layer of AS5 on the EVGAs. You also have to tighten the screws until the springs are like 90% compressed. I am not sure if Its perfectly running right now but its better.
Ok I reseated the block because EVGAs seem to have a problem with the NV-68. Temps are now ~47C Idle and 56C Max load. Not sure if that is good but its better than before.
Hmm no I have not. But if the GPU is not touching the block, wouldnt it get higher temps or even burn up? What could I do if it IS not touching the GPU? By the way, the video card is a EVGA 6800 Ultra.
Oh and thank you so much for replying!
Hello! I just finished putting together my first watercooling system and after testing it, I am very disapointed with the performance. Here are the parts:
Danger Den TDX CPU block
Danger Den nv-68 Rev. 1 GPU block
Danger Den DD12V-D5 Pump
Dual 5 1/4" Bay reservoir
Black Ice Xtreme 3
3x...
I bought a BIX3 and 3 Evercool 120mm aluminum fans. I am in need of 12 long screws to mount the fans to the BIX. My question for all BIX owners is, what size screw did you use (so I can go buy the right ones?)
Also, For those with NV-68 Dangerden GPU coolers, did your blocks come with icky...
