Nope

I think the Red cards would go better :toast:

Green just dont go with the red

I agree, but it still looks awesome, can I have

Yes that looks nice and all; but it would look better with 4 GTX 480's and water cooling all the way around. Stop disappointing and show what you got :toast:

The HD 5870 Matrix Platinum would especially fit in.

Athlonite · May 20, 2010

ewww green cards :slap:

how could you :shadedshu makes me feel sic just lookin at them

burtram · May 21, 2010

Was doing a heatsink swap between my 8800gs and 9800gt and thought of you guys, so I snapped these:

Not the best shots, but the lighting available kind of blew, oh well.

Messing around with some cooler master fans. xD

Wile E · May 21, 2010

I have a couple of those that came with both my case, and the extra 4 in 3 drive cage I grabbed. I clipped the leds on them. Too damn bright. (Don't really like led fans anyway)

um... is that your 12v rail displayed? looks like your PSU has seen better times!

My HD5870 throttles it back to 10.6v on the desktop to cut power. When I go 3D, or game it shows a healthy 12v. Nothing to worry about, just part of the cards means to save power.

errm... no video card throttles your 12v line :slap:

... its the PSU that does that, and when it does that, the amperage just rises.

The needed wattage is equal. The Powersavings of your Card will enable your card to draw few power in idle, only about 20 watt,thats right,that are the features you talk about.
But Hell no, it isnt your VGA that regulates the Voltage output... its draw probably has some effects in the PSU, which undervolts, when not fully loaded. i saw slightly similar behavior, when i used 1x8800gt compared to 2x8800gt... with 2 of them , the voltage level went above 12v, wheres it were only 11.7 or so before....

but i personally find, 10.6 is a little extreme... its WAY under the ATX spec, which minimum is +11,40v for the 12v line.
i would maybe considered RMAing the PSU, but i would measure the realtime voltage of the 12v line with a multimeter on a 4 pin molex, to be sure, what the real output voltage is

The PSU is fine. Brand new and put trough its passes. Thanks for the concern though.

boulard83 · May 21, 2010

Can you run OCCT or HWmonitor or anything that monitor the 12v ?

Cause as told, 10.6 is WAYYYY out of spec ...

or simple voltmeter on a Molex ...

Already checked. 12.12v It only does it with my videocard, on the desktop. No place else and other tools clearly show 12v. So its probably ATI Tool thats borked.

Thrackan · May 21, 2010

Haven't trusted ATI tool since I started running 64-bit operating systems couple of years back. It just got kind of... unpredictable and rather unstable. And I don't test stability with unstable programs.

Crazykenny · May 21, 2010

I heared that ATI Tool shows the voltage the card draws FROM the 12v line not what voltage is actually on there. I checked with HWMonitor and in the BIOS and they all show 12.12v which is normal, right?

Velvet Wafer · May 21, 2010

as said, its below the ATX spec, in an unhealthy level... i would RMA it, just to be sure
(you always can have a Part damaged or even DOA,even when buying new)
in the worst case szenario, the PSU overloads due to some malfunction, that mustnt occur, but can quite occur! it can then take out just the PSU, or every other Part in your rig (if you have really bad luck, most times the PSUs safety mechanismes protect the hardware from damage)
as said, it can also be a wrong reading sensor,which is quite common (another board of me shows 14v+ and 5.5v on the 12v and 5v lines for example, and measured in reality, it are 11.83 and 5.12, so perfectly normal voltages... maybe try it yourself, at least for our own confidence ;-)

EDIT: Gah! too slow!

fullinfusion · May 21, 2010

you must be using Everest on that G15 keyboard hey?

Upgrade to the newer software and the voltage should read normal again

Crazykenny · May 21, 2010

No, its ATI Tool

well ditch Ati tool and use Everest, it's a way better monitoring tool my friend :pimp:
