I hve this oem 9800 pro and the past 3 months no problem at all..the last 3 days when i go and play a game the graphics go crazy and i have to restart the computer (which is very difficult cause the colors r mix cant c a thing).
I tryed to touch the vga and i burned my finger so i guess its probably that problem..
Unfortunately in italy i cant find the arctic cooler anywhere and i was wondering:
1)is this a temp problem??
2)r the fanless products good??f.e. http://www.zalmanusa.com/usa/product/view.asp?idx=46&code=013

Thanx a lot waiting for your answers, cheers..
 
The r350 and r360 run hot, I would not recommend a fanless HSF unless its water cooled. If you get the zalman, make sure its the hp80c or hp80d and get the fan to go with it.
 
just for the record i found out (hopefully not too late) that 1 screw of the 2 that the fan has was diffected and the fan was not even touching the core, so imagine the temperatures of the core!!!
plus i cant find a replacement and still havent found any silencer in italy so i stabilize it with plastic wire, works perfect now... :D (of course till silencer arrives in rome ;) )
