Hiya shil, nice to see you and thanks! Yep, I'm a member of just about every forum going, LOL!
I bought some of this stuff from ocuk and some just recently from scan with free shipping, such as the ac ryans and the fan controller and the HR 03 GT.
Thanks thelostprophet, glad you like. I'll do some side pics with the cover on
Well, I'm VERY excited right now, albeit just over temps which some people would think is a bit sad, hehe. Anyway, check this out:
YESTERDAY:
Enermax everest on VGA on HIS HD4870 @ idle: 45c with lowest fan settings on vga cooler, floor and top. Also cpu fan (74cfm) set to low with smart fan enabled.
36c idle on highest fan settings on cooler, floor, top, and cpu fan with smart fan disabled.
@ Load with furmark with full fan speeds : 58c
Verdict : good.
TODAY
AC Ryan on VGA @ 35c with lowest fan settings on vga cooler, floor and top. Also cpu fan (74cfm) set to low with smart fan enabled.
33c idle on highest fan settings on cooler, floor, top, and cpu fan with smart fan disabled.
@ Load with furmark with full fan speeds only 45c and wouldn't budge
Verdict: bloomin' brilliant!
And I haven't even redone the MX-2 yet where I broke the seal when first installing the VGA cooler. How good is that?
To give you a reference, with stock GFX cooler and stock cpu cooler, I was getting 52c idle and 85c load GFX temps with furmark.
These fans are all great and I'd recommend the AC Ryans in a heartbeat.
