Folding on the 940 and 4850

hEHE okay.. The gpu one is in it's own folder..
i assume youre running the console version.. so easiest way to get the right folder is to open the log, and get it off there. Its the launch directory.

Don't laugh.

 

[patonb]

Definately an issue.

What would really help would be to drop the dvd down, and tuck the excess cable up out of the way. Or a least vtry and tuck them up and away, or behind.

You're definately choking your cpu fan.

 

[Pyrothrillah]

I know its a mess, I have TONS of cables not even being utilized. But, in this case there is no plate to hide them behind and so I have just been laying the excess in the drive bay.

 

[patonb]

yHA.. drop your dvd down then and tuck it all up there.

If you get that bundle out of the way, you'll vent so much better...

Oh, see no laughing either......... yet

 

[Pyrothrillah]

The CD-ROM is on the top bay. And underneath it is where I had my wires, I just shook the case alot trying to open it and they feel out looking like that.

Laughter is coming. I smell it.

Well, even if we were laughing, you'd never know.

Anyway, a combination of your case's airflow and that wire...management...is killing your temperature performance. That's going to hurt your overclock when you get the core contact, too. Even without the back plate, I bet there's something you can do for that mess. Grab some zip ties, they're cheap. You can zip things to the chassis...I have terrible wire management potential in my case and I still somehow manage.

That is quite literally the best I can do without getting extenders...or a new case. But the stuff is out of the way enough, and I'm getting a max of 54c while folding on a stock cooler at 3.5ghz.

 

[Pyrothrillah]

Viable solution to poor air flow? Though I only have a spot to put one fan that will draw from outside. I already have 10-15 zip ties in my case . I'll have to try again I was drinking a tad when I did it to start with.
