Post: @raistmer: is/was there any direct physical contact between the cooler and the memories and the voltage regulators? pls. have a very close and patient look .. most of the gpu cards don´t have it! |

Post: YES! .. completely agree; had just small difficulties with parts of the "echo", but finally did "surrender" anyway; not too much use to go further, because most of the topics already mentioned and "discussed" .. over and over again; no use and/or not helpful to repeat it 4ever. |

Post: .. might happen, that people of your kind moving at light-speed are loosing ground? not being able to understand or even listen? doesn´t matter .. go ahead as you want. just as a wish .. pls. be aware of the second star on the left right north of orion, not to smash into that. would be a real desaster to see you lost in this black hole! ;-) |

Post: ;-) .. just take the corsair 750ax (or 850) - and leave any headache behind about the psu any more! i understand that .. and always only just give advice according to my own opinion, evaluation and experience. corsair ax750 is for sure not the only good psu, and others would also serve well. so pls. don´t feel "pressed" .. it´s just recommendation out of evaluation and experience! i´m using this (850) device myself as stated before, and it simply works perfect; that´s the reason, why i recommend it. psae: in another machine, i´m running a "be-quiet" 700 watts psu without any troubles, but this one doesn´t have cable management like the corsair; may be, this is easier 4u to purchase? psae1: wish you all the best running your busy days! |

Post: I asked you if you remember. don´t worry raistmer .. this is all past and gone. the main problem on many gpu cards simply is, that the gpu is cooled .. and that´s, what we measure by software; the rest - like mems and vregs - as mentioned at the very beginning of this thread - is in many cases not cooled properly, which happens to lead to thermal breakdowns on the long run .. from my side now, there is no proposal 4 the future left except the one in my last post concerning psu; for the rest, i just very much wish you a successful operation to put everything together running properly! aloha from austria! |

Post: I asked you if you remember. .. most of all my questions & advices were mainly neglected and more or less ignored, if "you" (everybody) remember? from the very beginning, every of my remarks now finally turned out to be substantial. memories and voltage regulators not cooled on old card, power supply evaluation for new one, risk of mechanical shortcomings in raistmer´s case environment due to dimensions of new card, a.s.o, a.s.o. ....... up to now, i really couldn´t stand to keep shut up .. but from now on, it seems like i would be able to manage that; makes no sense to talk, if nobody is really listening! :-) |

Post: ;-) @ jason .. i completely agree .. corsair and seasonic are in close cooperation btw.. i finished my telecom-studies already 1980, and also gathered some experience since then. so my evaluations (like yours) led me to finally purchase exactly THIS unit for myself, have it running - and very satisfied .. that´s all together why i recommended it. |

Post: .. and this .. is (one of) the "other" side(s) of the medal. propaganda, propaganda, propaganda .. and everybody accuses others, about what they are doing themselves - but just hidden in a quite different way. and today - finally france has another "nice" idea to go alone, that sarkozy´s ego could be playing something "special" (who is the crazy here?) .. so even now, they are NOT ABLE to do - at least - something rasonable .. to-gether. forget, that what is happening is not "pro-west" (supression), but "contra-supression" of their own (mostly west-supported) "leaders", which is everything else than the same! .. will be interesting, when "west" peoples will stop to accept and watch this without further action, being exactly the same principle .. still and again - over and over again - everything very, very disgusting, as i did mention already; i´m sorry! |

Post: no .. unfortunately not "in the cards"; completely different situation, like tunesia and not comparable. but may be also this is a kind of CHANCE .. if the arabic countries would finally ASK for support (which they are afraid of for clear reasons) and russia and china would agree, this could again change a lot; in a way, it would also force "other countries" (also them) to agree to something, which they are not actually living now! still .. even being a perspective .. this would be another earthquake on the globe, never running in any way smoothly; but let´s stay optimistic ;-)! psae: many thanx 4 sharing your opinions and thoughts with me! |

Post: very true .. and - very complex, indeed! in fact middle east (and finally northern africa in the first run) is exploding step by step now .. the whole world is sitting on a nuclear bomb, which is glowing around now for years. .. and - openly speaking - i´m very much afraid about all kind of losses on all sides. no one really knows, who is who on either sides, and as soon as anyone is raising weapons, he is - in fact - doing the same, what he wants to avoid. this is one of the big paradoxes of "peace", i think. psae: pls. be a little patient with me, these kind of things are even hard to understand and even more to explain in my mother tongue in a written form. |

Post: .. very "nice" .. and - just as an example - well known; empty words; best way to put the focus on moral values "some"where, to be able to go ahead inside own country without further notice, neglecting most of all said here. .. if america would REALLY use it´s enourmous power and ressources .. and remember their original values & believes - and act like this inside & out, we might have a better world. what really looks different in a very positive way .. arabian countries shouldn´t try to provocate the "west" to involve - just to be able to say later, they didn´t really mean to have this or the other collateral damage, which would occur in any case. so .. how the us and europe is behaving right now - not immediately interfering - seems to be the only right way for me. the question left open unfortunately - is the true intentions behind everything on all sides; this nobody really knows at all! |

Post: .. raistmer! .. this (86c) is/was by far too high; not 4 the gpu (it´s high anyway even for that), but mainly 4 the board, memories and voltage regulators .. as i mentioned - "long" time ago; we are - with software - just measuring gpu temps .. so mems and vregs became much hotter under this circumstances - probably too hot, and after "long" time, they die; looks like you were lucky to have it running for so long ;-). |

Post: Nostradamus may have you beaten on the timescale of the prediction...lol .. and edgar cayce on timescale AND prediction; leaving a lot more others unmentioned to predict, that we wouldn´t survive, if we go on like that - together - world-wide! psae: may be not too much use for efforts (including grid-computing) to search for extraterrestrial intelligence, as long as "we" behave as stupid, as we are still doing! |

Post: .. this is not the united states only! unfortunately this a global desaster. just as an example, here now - i have to pay € 50,- for a small bag purchasing some food - nothing special, which is ~ 3 times the cost of only 10 years ago. my salary - on the other hand - is ~ 25% down compared to then. fuel prices, energy, cost for flat, taxes - everything is exploding (over night) .. that means, i have to work more for same money to get less goods; and the tendency continues .. not just for me, but for the majority. may be "foolish", that i didn´t take the other way - which i could have done .. to be on the "pirates" side - selling others interests for my own ego; 4 me, it still feels "right" ;-) |
