Thanks!
So it seems I should use CPU_FAN for the H80 controller (just pump rpm monitoring, no speed control) and then plug the two GT's into a couple of chassis fan headers.
Hi all. I'm building a new PC with these parts. Previously I've done fan control very basic with Zalman FanMates. This time I want to do variable fan speeds vs CPU temp, but it's new to me.
I have Scythe Gentle Typhoon AP-15's to replace the Corsair fans. This is what I think I know and plan...
Got my 1366 True tonight. In case anyone's wondering... the new fan shroud works fine for 120x38mm fans. It's obviously designed for the thinner fan they ship with it, but everything holds secure with the thick fan, once you push all those plastic fingers firmly into the heatsink fins.
They're listing it in stock as of this morning, $64.99. I don't know anything about epowerhousepc, but nobody else has the product right now.
However, read the reviews at newegg, re quality control problems with this bad boy.
6.10 betas, from the link i gave earlier. That was always my plan, but it's nice to see that AACDIRECT says he has no problems with them and a 1950 crossfire setup.

Right now I have my x1950xtx Crossfire master and slave cards sitting on my kitchen table waiting for the...
Check the ATI-specific forum. You can install either the beta 6.10's or the hacked/fixed 6.9's, both should work. The "hack" to fix the 6.9's is smply to add the correct x1950 entries to the .INF files.

DX10 will only work on Vista, NOT on Win XP.
This means that game publishers will not be able to make any money selling DX10-only games until 18-24 months after Vista is released. There just won't be enough installed base.
The games which have announced DX10 "support" are just using DX10...
Probably leave it alone and don't install the Arctic. Too dangerous, now.
Next, so you don't do this again, go to Home Depot and buy one of those little cases of jewellers screwdrivers. Your problem was almost certainly caused by using a screwdriver head too big for the job.
