If you compare the standard temps to other cards, it do run hot. If you compare it to the thermal temps it does not. 69c in FurMark after heavy overclocking is 46c away from the thermal temp, that is not hot for the card itself. Heck, most people has CPU's that reach temps MUCH closer to the...

Open your GPU's control panel. Go to resolution settings and make sure that you have chosen (HD) and not (SD). HD, Best setting for HDTV's SD, Not recommended PC, Works best for monitors Edit: Could you post a screenshot of your control panel's settings (whether it is Nvidia or ATi).. do...

100% that's a bit too much for me. 75% worked just fine for me, and i don't like noise (to a certain extent). However, 100% was not bearable even with headphones on. That's also something which i found very surprising.. The noice increase from 30%-75% isn't much, but once you reach 80-85% the...

75% fan speed was not noticable due to the other components in my case being Louder (Antec 900) than the GPU. Also, the Noise was less noticeable on 75% fan speed compared to GTX 275 on 60%. Edit: i'm currently making an objective review. If something isn't included in the review, i'll add any...

E5400 won't be able to play real 1080p movies (blu ray). Sure, there are decoded MP4 1080p movies out there. Yet, that's not really blu ray quality... My old laptop could run certain 1080p movies, but never blu ray.. it couldn't even make a 720p blu ray movie too play smooth. To OP: Download...

Your processor is running too slow. The MININUM requirements to run 1080p movies are: Windows XP Windows Media Player 9 Series DirectX 9.0 3.0 GHz processor or equivalent 512 MB of RAM 128 MB video card DVD drive 1920 x 1440 screen resolution These are the mininum and doesn't really result in...

The problem by doing so lies in the usage of one spesific tool. I use EXPERTool from Gainward, whilst other tools such as EVGA's and so on might not cranck up the fan speed the same way my tool does. I tried Auto and it starts on 30% and when i hit 70c it just doesn't increase to more than 40%...

In single-GPU performance they don't. Not like that.. Let me explain: Two gtx 275's was cheaper than 295 and Performed in most cases better (according to reviews). So, first i could buy one and enjoy it for a while, then a second one later and keep the two until the next gen. I saved a lot of...

The 5850 can play all games on max and look the same as the 480 does, so regardless of what numbers it puts out in benchmarks, it may aswell be the same card for real world use at the moment. The image Quality can be different, but i dont know.. I used to have many ATi cards until HD 4870...

"that is still 17% higher than the ATi 5850, which was on stock fan settings" Boasting 5850 is very irrelevant when i'm talking about GTX 480 who needs to cool down MANY more components and 3-BILLION transistors. also, i overclocked my core by 104 mhz on air (see my spects) that's an insane...

Okay? You Do know that your argument hints your lack of any sense right? What does all kinds refers to? becasue he didn't mention any product(s) it simply refers to everything.. He said " All kinds of things " that's everything that's in fact a "thing" or an object..

Get me banned from the forum? Let me leave you with this dear kind sir: In your previous post you have already given yourself a reason to receive an infraction. The same goes for 3 other members that used offensive words before i made any reply (yet, i have not a single time used any...

Norway is the second richest country in the world, get a clue maybe? GDP (nominal) per capita Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_GDP_%28nominal%29_per_capita That's what i ment. GTX 480 was relatively "cheap" here, nor was the price difference "here" huge between gtx 480...

i GTX 480 is the best single gpu on the market by a whole load once tesselation is enabled which is the most important part of DX11. I can document this because i have the card, you dont.

You have nothing to do in this section if you don't care. Leave. I'm just proven what i said earlier about the reviewers leaving the fan on 30-40%. Also, the heat from GTX 480 DOES NOT affect my overall system temps in speedfan. All the heat is directed out of my case on the back where the...

I posted this on another thread as well. But since this is relevant to this thread i'll repost. I didn't bother to wait longer than 25 min, but i doubt it would increase much more because it kept going up to 68 and down to 67. MAX temp 69c after 25 min.. I did some changes in my case and i...

What if your impression on things are not reality? Are you telling everyone that you're better, and has a better view on life? Everyone will always have different impressions.

I didn't bother to wait longer than 25 min, but i doubt it would increase much more because it kept going up to 68 and down to 67. MAX temp 69c after 25 min.. I did some changes in my case and i belive it helped the air flow a lot. Also, the heat from GTX 480 is being lead out from the GPU on...

This must be some sort of company..

I'll do that. The sad thing about furmark is the fact that it pushes GPU's far beyond what they'll ever hit in terms of temperature in gaming.
