Tjj226_Angel Posted February 7, 2012 Posted February 7, 2012 Nice find! I was sure a 7950 wouldn't fit. Thanks! It took me a while to find the information for me to be able to site to know for sure that it would work. In reality, only a few car PCBs won't fit. It is because of their coolers that makes the product a tight squeeze in his case. If anything at all, he could get pretty much any 7950 and get an after market cooler to the length of the PCB and have it fit. However, having this HIS card ready to go and install without any sort of modification at all is DEFINITELY what the OP should go with.

Richard89 Posted February 7, 2012 Posted February 7, 2012 on another note my cpu cooler if i returned it and got the coolermaster v10 that would fit then wouldnt it i would save more money buying this than getting the v8 and the ram coolers as the v10 does both job.

Richard89 Posted February 7, 2012 Posted February 7, 2012 the v10 is 6.3inches high so would leave me with just under 2 1/2 inches for my side fans Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tjj226_Angel Posted February 7, 2012 Posted February 7, 2012 i like the flashy lights and so forth with the cooler master ram pro cooler haha its more of a taste thing than a money thing hehe The cooler master v6 gt, the NZXT havik, the thermaltake frio are all better coolers than the V8. The V10 is fine, but as owen said, cooling the ram is not really needed. If you like the lights, go with the cooler master v6 gt.

I agree with you, but he already has the v8 so he would have to send it back if he wanted a different cooler. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard89 Posted February 7, 2012 Posted February 7, 2012 i could send it back which is better the cooler master v6 gt. or the the thermaltake frio there about nearish the same price i paid for the v8 so it wouldnt bother me sending the v8 back the NZXT Havik is one sexy cooler but it should be for the price tag haha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
medbor Posted February 7, 2012 Posted February 7, 2012 Just to set things straight here.... the 5670 you had in the beginning had 400 shader processors each running at 775MHz (can overclock to about 900), with 800MHZ memory over a 128bit interface (12GB/s bandwith). Total number of graphics instructions per second is 310 billion The 7950 recomended by the forum members has 1792 shader processors each running at least at 800MHz (can overclock to 1200) together with 5000MHz memory on a 384bit interface (240GB/s) (20x more) Total number of graphics instructions per second is 1433 billon (5x more) all this for roughly double the price of what you where thinking of paying...
