How do you "tape" the senser on to your video card? Wont the tape melt. Also...with the heatpipe coolers for the HDD without any fans, just the copper heatpipes...do you just mount those around the harddrive and it cools it alot?
evidently not... :)Quote:

vid cards shouldn't get hot enough to melt plastic tape, if they do, there's a rather large problem

oh. that sucks. maybe pricegrabber or some other uk stores has it for cheap?
@clocker: y do u need a heat pipe for a 9000? it's not that intensive of a card
not really. i'm about 2-3 feet away from my pc, and i hear a very low humming. wait, do u have sleave or ball bearing fans? i think mines ball, sory bout the sleave mistake. i'm pretty sure it's ball, or else it would be cheaper b4 rebateQuote:
