Well here is something you don't see everyday.
Ok so, I was fiddling with my brand new video card in the mail today
I got a asus HD 5450 silent video card. It was on sale too.
I thought this hasto be too good to be true!
So I payed for it online. I said why not. I can always mod it to have a cool fan
So I go ahead with my tests. To make sure it works.
Because you never know with online things now a days.
So anyways I'm fiddling I install the card/drivers. I over clock it then i
Notice one time when it was off, that there was a massive amount of heat coming from the heat sink. I thought yep! I'll be putting a small fan o. It soon enouph. Lo and behold. I put a fan on it. But now with the fan on there I can over clock that mother ****er to the max and she's still good to go.
But while I took the heat sink off to inspect it was still ok from not having the fan on it. I was lucky, the GPU on the card was still good. But when I took the video card out to inspect the GPU i put a fan of clear baby oil on the GPU
The GPU moved like a bunch of sharks towards a raw piece of meat. It was weird and cool to see with the human eye. But I heard that kind of oil is really good for computer chips and so forth. What's everyone's opinion?
