omg, how many times have I and others warned about the need for a relay kit...
yes, i learned the hard way too, but only once and that got me sorted Edit: very glad it still works mate, nice1 AMD! "and once the afterglow of the nuclear detonation faded, all that was standing was an R600 core "

I agree, I never use plastic wor whatever in a tec block. One block i had my first accident with is still alive, even tho the anodizing appears to have been vaporised off...

OMG, I guess the XT flash will have to wait. So as you were eating your toasted cheese, did you smell something burning? I would have freaked.
I just had an issue with a short on my Koolance thermal sensor - installed the HD 2900 Pro, turned on, heard beeping and the system shut down. Did it agin and saw the CPU block tem at 130c! wiggled the wires and it dropped back to 76c (whew). Moral of the story - Koolance makes a kick ass product - the temps go to high and the system simpy shuts down.

![]() ive got a little feature in my bios (most do) that automatically powers down the system if the cpu temp passes 60c or 70c (i dont remember exactly i can change it to various temps as well) and my craptastik hardcano12 screams like a raped ape when (never does) the temps surpass the user defined thresholds.

DaMulta, i warned you about the relay switch, you were being all like "dont have a relay switch, and my system still works, i dont need one" and now look what happens. you're mad lucky that the limited 2900pro of yours still works. people in other countries dont have 2900pros avaliable to em.

You know, you and Wile E are testimonies against TEC cooling. I will stay with air or water thank you very much. Sorry bout the melted waterblock man. I am glad that the 2900 pro still works though.
