Accelero S1 on 4870....Was bored

Boneface · Sep 28, 2008

Got bored and decided to slap 2 120s on my accelero S1 with my Diamond HD4870 lol. What do u all think? Temps are at idle. Will try games when i get one installed

Dark_Webster · Sep 28, 2008

Nice temps man!! Congrats

SANEagent · Sep 28, 2008

Accelero plus fans = 3 slots, right?

lol ya 3 slots, but for me i only have my xfi gamer with it so theres more then enough room.

Darknova · Sep 28, 2008

What have you got on the VRMs if anything?

oli_ramsay · Sep 28, 2008

He's got the VRM sink which comes with the S1 by the looks of it.

Although the holes don't quite match up with the 4870, I just used a rubber band to hold it on

(which has now broken but the VRm seems to be held in place by the S1)

Boneface · Sep 28, 2008

I used what came with the s1. 1 side is screwed in but the other holes dont match up so i just have a plastic clip holing the other end on. And my max temps after playing cod4 is 50c

Why are your idle clocks so high? Make sure powerplay is working. Youll thank me when you see your electricity bill.

edit: Look slike you're using a custom bios, make sure you have edited it correctly.

Boneface · Sep 28, 2008

LOL i dont have to pay electric here all inclusive. The bios im using is the one for the Diamond hd4870 XOC Black Edition.

If it's not too much trouble would you mind getting some close-up pics of it? I've been looking for something better than I have, my VRM temps reach 120'C under load and that's with heatsinks....

LuxZg · Sep 29, 2008

What I'm interested is - what are the highest temps of VRMs that you've had during any gaming. Because I have same setup, just didn't have much luck with that VRM heatsink (wasn't staying in the place like I wanted it to)

Boneface · Sep 29, 2008

Especially the Rev. 2, it is pimp.

Boneface · Sep 29, 2008

my buddy has the rev2 and the sinks for the volt regs dont stick well at all. If i had the choice between the 2 i would stay wit this one

Boneface · Oct 5, 2008

Heres the pics of the sink on the volt regs, sorry for bad quality

Darknova · Oct 5, 2008

Is that a ref card? (IE does it have the PULSE chips to the left of the VRMs?)

Managed to get mine attached anyway, and replaced the "turbo module" with 2 120mm fans and dropped GPU temps by ~10'C and VRM temps by ~20'C

BrooksyX · Oct 5, 2008

Yeah Acceleros are pretty bad ass. I have one on my Ati 3850, it idles at like 33 C without any fans. I have another one I'm gonna stick on my 3870 I just got back from rma when I get some time. Too bad I don't have very much room for fans, I think I'm gonna just stick an 80mm fan on each one near the back of them. Oh well better than nothing.

tomcug · Oct 5, 2008

Boneface, can you post load temperatures too? Thanks in advance

I shall post you mine as I've just been playing Crysis to check (4870 set up the same way as Boneface's)

GPU never broke 60'C, and the VRMs were hovering around the 75-80'C mark. Now I believe that the VRM temp is so high compared to boneface (who said around 60'C i believe) because they are literally sat next to my NB heatsink, which reaches ~55'C under load.

It's a very hot area around there when the PC's under load, but those temps are still much much much better than the 70+ and 120+ I was getting originally.

Darknova, thanks for the info
