    Best cooling solution for ASUS Radeon 9550GE 128MB 128-bit (5.0 ns)

    Yeah, I know that fridges aren't designed to work with an high heat load (as you say 24/7), however that can be a good choice if you do not use the fridge as your main radiator, if you cool the water before it enters the fridge it won't be so stressful to the fridge. for exmple, I can use copper...

    Thanks Dippyskoodlez. I only have rough soldering skills... like solding earings, or rings gems, etc (my sister studied arts, and i've learned to solder small things, but only with a large soldering machine and the things I used do solder didn't required any precision at all, and if I did any...

    my mobo lets me change the vddq from the bios, but i only can change it from 1.5V to 1.6 or 1.7, well, I need some explanation, what are the vdd and vddq? if we were talking about vcore I would logically know that it refered to the voltage of the processor core.. but here there are too...

    ah ha, :D ;) , I'd rather prefer the copper heatsinks from thermaltake than the aluminium ones from zalmam... thermaltake psu, hum, mine's a 650W q-tec. and... it costed only near 20eur!!! but I think that a 550W Tough Power Series W0096 or a 680W Pure Power W0049 would be GREAT choices...

    Thanks AceFactor, i like thermaltake :) , but also I like other person's opinions, and I didn't know that zalman produced ram heatsinks. humm, the heatsinks that are painted in blue aren't the aluminum ones?

    Forgot one thing :D , if you will use the water cooler on your vga card also put some memory heatsinks (copper are the best ones, of course...) on the card's memories. thermaltake also sells those, and they're really cheap, (here in portugal the al heatsinks cost 4.9 eur, and the cu ones cost 5 eur)

    Hi, do you have any water cooler? If so, get a vga water block. If not, use a thermaltake CL-G0003, I think that's a good cooler (to maximize it try to get a way to put your vga fan on the cooler). I have a question, I have the same card, but mine is a9550 ge/td 256 with infineon memories, and...
