Same, 1GHz parts. Looks like XFX forgo fitting the 800MHz parts which a lot of manufacturers overvolt. Thats good and bad, good as its a higher spec part, bad because XFX don't volt that part as they should, typically its about 1.74v, where the HJ1A parts should be @ 1.9-2v. I can only assume XFX don't volt the memory properly to limit OCs, which is kinda gay. Can you fire up each card on your current system and run overdrive to see where each card settles?

 

[MoonPig]

Nope, i have no computer.

 

[Ketxxx]

That sucks man, I feel for you Hows the RMA going with Asus?

 

[MoonPig]

Waiting for mobo back from DPD.

But i've been looking through the Trading Standards site, and OcUK are in the wrong.

Gunna wait for OcUKs responce before i tell Asus.

My XFX seems to clock well, but it is GDDR5 so I guess that's in another department for memory.

OCuk are ALWAYS in the wrong. Manufacturers have a agreement with any retailer/etailer that the first year of warrenty is handled with the retailer/etailer, after that it goes to the manufacturer. OCuk are at least breaking 2 contracts in their behavior. If I looked into things, I'd probably find about 10 rules/contracts their breaking.

Yes it is

Drinking beer at 9:08am is a bad sign.

Chrysler is bankrupt....thank fuck for that.

No more crappy Minivan's...god help all America!

 

[Ketxxx]

HAHAHA!! with them bankrupt I bet pollution will half across the US

Moonpig, I'll try to have a look at things when I can, busy sorting some paperwork out for my business atm. Give trading standards a email, they can cause OCuk no end of headaches insisting to look as far back as 10 years of customer/account records.

I've sent a webnote to OcUK.

I've used alot of TradingStandards quotes, and said i'll contact them for a personal opinion if needed.

This should be fun

If you really cant get anywhere with the retailer, the manufacturer should step in. I know they have to if a retailer goes out of business.

Then again that could go out the window cus it was B-grade

Keep on fighting, I just got my money back from Mastercard from the unauthorised payment from CCP Games

Threats will do little with OCuk, their complete twats. Go straight to trading standards, at the very least they should send OCuk a rather stern letter and give someone at OCuk a rather uncomfortable phonecall to deal with.

 

[alexp999]

Trading Standards will have wanted you to try what you can first, once you get a completely unhelpful response, then they will step in

For pig and alex.

How did you manage to slap a second fan on your S1283?

 

[alexp999]

If Im looking at it right, you have threaded a cable tie through one fan, through the Heatsink then through the other fan, then cut off the end of another cable tie and secured that on to the end, and trim the excess.

Rinse and repeat, right??

 

[kyle2020]

Thats a really good idea actually . . . any temperature benefits vs. a single fan?

 

[Deleted member 24505]

Nice way to use zip ties.

 

[alexp999]

I would have thought with the rear exhaust so close it could make things worse, but i could be wrong.

Correct. I use just two tiewraps as its enough.


Load drops about 5-7'C (better airflow in A900 than my Lian Li) with two fans, but these are 110cfm Kaze-Jyuni fans, not the stock 75cfm~ crap....works wonders with the backplate too.

Edit: Rear fan helps, I had 2x110cfm fans strapped together in the back of my A900 sucking the air out...worked amazing, but it was ghetto.

 

[MoonPig]

I'm gunna try OcuK first.

This is the Socket, just got the board back:

I don't see how that would happen, if it was at the edge, maybe, but where it is doesn't make sense.

Whats the green stuff, and where is the bent pin
