Watercooled Geforce3 - what temps are you guys getting?

garetjax · 12-15-2001, 11:32 PM

Hi,

Just curious what others are getting for temps with their watercooled geforce3 cards? I think mine runs hot but unfortunately I did not have my digidoc monitor it with the heatsink and fan and I don't feel like putting it back on just to check. I am getting around 30C while hardcore gaming (return to castle wolfenstein or ut). My gainward card is currently overclocked 260/525.

Don't know if this will be helpful, but for comparison's sake, the monitoring software for my Asus v8200 reports a temp of around 70C+ after gaming, stock cooling and clock.

That seems obscenely hot to me, and maybe the software is wrong, but it's a big reason why I'm going to watercool it and am looking into including a Peltier.

So if the measurement is right, you're doing pretty well down there at 30.

Damn,

I had no idea that my geforce was that hot - twice as hot as my cpu according to what you guys measured. I guess my autozone rad is really working.
