jelly Posted July 24, 2006 Posted July 24, 2006 I dont know if my x1900 temps are ok or not. It idles 57c and at full load 107c. :eek: That just seems to hot to me. I have the stock cooler on it, and no overclock. The card run great beside the temps. I DO NOT want to do anything to the card that will void the warranty. When I know why the temps are that high and can get them down, I would then like to overclock the card. Any Ideas? I dont want to kill my card!

Thraxz Posted July 24, 2006 Posted July 24, 2006 take the side off of your case and see what happens to the temps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jelly Posted July 25, 2006 Posted July 25, 2006 Will temps that high kill my card. I have hear the the x1900 run hot, but I did not think that they got this hot! If I take my heatsink off and put some as5 on it void my warranty? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciberfog Posted July 25, 2006 Posted July 25, 2006 Will temps that high kill my card. I have hear the the x1900 run hot, but I did not think that they got this hot! Â Well i hear many people in the 90s but not the 100s, and if u are using ur fan at 100% then something is very wrong thats crazy high. Â I just read some threads on other forums and yeah some people got like 80-90 when they are using the fan only at 50-60% (because of the noise) Â U dont have any other problem with temps? like ur mobo or ur cpu ? Â I dont think is going to kill ur card, but not sure about the performance and the life lenght Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
