hmmmm.... can you please either add pics here or pm me some pic's of the cooler installed. I may do the same thing love the Arctic coolers! Also what is your ASIC quality? EDIT: Also what were your temps before you upgraded and what are your temps now? Cheers.
@ CPC_RedDawn Here they are: Front Back Side Rivatuner Statistics after full Heaven 4.0 run at max settings GPU-Z With the original heatsink, the GPU temperature used to sit around 75~78 degrees under full load with the fan speed at a fixed 70%. With the Accelero I set a fan profile of 50~75% and it barely even reaches 60 degrees under max load. This thing is whisper quiet, even at 70% I can hardly hear it's 3 fans over my case fans while doing a damn fine job at keeping the GPU core nice and cool.
Awesome, thanks dude for those pics. Something to keep in mind then, I have max of around 68C after a long session gaming but that is with around 70% fan speed and its not too loud but I remember the Accelero III I had my old GTX480 and it was quiet even at full 12v speed.
Max OC 1478MHz, but It downclocked to 1464Mhz at one point, think it could be extra 200MHz ram OC taking its voltage toll Score:4359
And another test, PB so far:nerd: Well I've been testing it a little now with fixed fan 75% which prevent it from reaching 65C.. 4553 or ~ 109FPS Cpu 4.7GHz/ 4.2GHz (cache) Gpu 1482MHz/ 7740Mhz (360MHz offset) Which beats GTX 1080 @ 107fps:nerd:, max OC Strix got 116fps http://www.overclock3d.net/reviews/gpu_displays/nvidia_gtx1080_founders_edition_review/22 here it got only 100.5fps which is 1fps slower then my factory OC 1418mhz boost, not bad for 150€ less.. c1: http://www.gamespot.com/articles/nvidia-geforce-gtx-1080-review/1100-6439863/
Not bad at all considering that you are actually using that card for very long time. That's increased value as well.
Here's my 980 being pushed fairly close to it's max with the vCore the stock BIOS will allow Get much more stable Core clocks with the fan on manual cranked right up to hair-dryer mode, stuck with 1550 right up to the last scene where it dropped to 1538 57c max lol (Gone slightly deaf now)
I thought he had it much longer. Time is such a weird thing. I have here 2 runs from me. Both at same preset. One is at 3.3GHz CPU and other at 4.8GHz. In both cases GPU utilization remained 100% with occasional dips to 96/98% for time of one statistical refresh of RTSS overlay. In both cases GPU fan run at same speed and GPU had same temperature. Why is there such difference in fps? I am still CPU bound :/ 3.3GHz Spoiler 4.8GHz Spoiler And ups, I have RTSS fps limiter at 144 but considering that lower score there which barely approached that limit...
