Overclocking XFX GeForce 7600GS 256MB PCIe

My GT is in my main PC, heh. Hopefully my board does come back this week =(... Running on this single-core Celeron is **** compared to my e6750 lol.

But yeah, my mobo wouldn't even POST; when I tried with only a single RAM stick, and took off my HDD's, it said "Locating BIOS on hard drive" so apparently the BIOS corrupted somehow =\.

Nice... I still haven't ziptied a fan to my acclero yet since it is so cool and silent as it is... why bother

40C idle and 0 dba? Do i really need 30C with a fan for 33dba?

on second thought.........

Isn't that fan more like 18 or 21dba?

Mine had many problems over its life. The final straw was it would only operate for about 5 minutes then power down in a flash. The particular chipset was not loved by many. I wasn't as gentle with it as I could have been though. *lessons learnt

Usually a good idea not to rough-house with electronic components, espeically the motherboard . They shipped out my board on Friday though, so I should get it back this Thursday, w00t.

Im close, i get 43C with my fan at 50% when my room is cool. When its hot at night i get around 49C. Load temps never go past 60C though.

you should put an exhaust fan up in that top hole too.

These mods are still running a dream but I took one fan off because it was in the way. I was amazed how much lower it sent the temps. I don't have the figures on me though.
