    Need to beat the Florida heat, gpu heating issue
    « on: April 08, 2010, 10:27:52 AM »
    Hi, my gpu is idling between 54-56C and when playing Dragon Age it heats to 70C+ then shuts the pc down.
    I can't seem to find the extra fan case I have *somewhere* so I figure I'd just go ahead and buy something meant for gpus....

    I'm not sure whats compatible. I went on newegg and saw fans-heatinks that mentioned other gpus but not mine. I've never used anything beyond case fans and a good dusting.

    athlon 5200
    xfx geforce 9400 1g ddr2
    2gb ram
    down to two case fans right now

    price range....under 30.00
