What is a good aftermarket cooler for a 8800GT graphics card?

i was overclocking it alot tonight and it was getting so hot it shut off and crashed my pc lol ^^b


i pushed it to 702mhz core and about 1050memory clock, turned the stock clock up to 4500rpm and started running 3dmark03

after the first test running at 700-800fps avg, the chip hit nearly, if not higher then 80 C and crashed.

kioto you know of any?

What he meant by stupid, in a more subtle way. When you actually do overclocking, you shouldn't try and push the hardware all the way. Unless you are looking to burn out the graphics card.

Try overclocking it by small amounts. Maybe 2-5% more than what its rated as. Make sure you have proper ways of displacing heat. Otherwise you will fry parts .

Ok fine. I'll learn the lesson. I need to stop being so fucking nice anyway.

Listen you fucking dick bag. Perhaps jesus missed the boat with you when creating whatever the fuck you call a mind.
Having A.D.D must really fucking kick in when overclocking doesn't it. Perhaps if you overclock the card by 800 % and put your hand on to displace the heat you could find the cure for Stupid.

P.S Fuck You and everything about you. You overclocking son of a bitch tripod.

Some people aren't looking for longevity out of their PC products. Overclock the shit out of it as long as you know the consequences.

normally on my stock cooler i cant take my 2.13ghz cpu higher then 2.4ghz or it will shut down.

i installed the behemoth cooler and cranked it up(not to the max yet)

Image

2.8ghz @ 30 C

thats frkn awesome ^_^

I can put my Q6600 to 3.0Ghz overclock but its unstable so I need to find what volt on NB needs to be and Vcore volt as well.
Author:  Masterg [ Sat May 10, 2008 6:13 am ]
Post subject: 
yeah same here, that 2.8ghz was at stock voltages and after i rebooted, its no longer stable going between 6 and 8 multiplier and 1.129-1.296V

There's only so much you can do with a shitty DFI MoBo. If you invest in something decent you'll notice difference in both stability and OC potential. Some instability might not have anything to do with CPU heat, VCM heat is also as important and so is north bridge cooling.
As for the your first question, are you looking into water cooling or air cooling?
Author:  Pantherxx [ Sat May 10, 2008 12:02 pm ]
Post subject: 
mobo I have is P7N diamond and it have copper pipes on SB and NB as well to keep cooling going there. But in another word I always can upgrade those to water cool if I want to.

im looking at air i just ordered a Arctic Cooler accelero 1 Rev 2 for my 8800gt. and this dfi board used to be one of the best overclocking boards back when i was piecing it together. the tester(coolaler of thailand) was able to get a fsb of 600mhz(idk how) with sli(hacked drivers)((i want them :())

You're going way off on this. Plus that MoBo cannot ever be the best OC'ing board even 5 years ago. DFI has crappy boards period.
