Laugh all you want. It does work.... and better than the stock one :p




... provided you only have 1 per rig lol.

wait, thats a 5870 and you're getting 456.22 MH/s?

I get 503 on my 5870 @ 1090/330. P4's 456mhash @ 1000mhz has a small room for improvement; I can do 461.47 at 1000/330.

Next, attach the nozzle of a ShopVac.  Shocked  Tongue

I would have, if I had one. I considered a hairdryer too!

So what do you do when a 5870 fan fails, when the card is still under warranty, when there are warranty seals on the screws and you havent gotten an RMA number yet?

Simple, take a fan, a hot glue gun and fix it!

Except, one fan didnt do it. The original broken fan is still in there, and its not moving and blocking the airflow. So it overheated. Badly.

So you take a second fan. Better but still not good enough.

So you do the obvious thing and find whatever fans you have of roughly the right size and you end up with this beauty:





Now its back to 60C Cheesy.
