"aluminum = 0.896 kJ per kg per Kelvin
copper = 0.383 kJ per kg per Kelvin"


BAM!

There's the interesting numbers I was after : ]


There's huge debates on Copper Vs Aluminium so this isn't the place to do it, another thread perhaps fella?


Bta I found it outstanding you would even consider banning someone for such reasons : /

Regarding everything else I won't reply, someone has already pointed out we're arguing over nothing essentially.

I will say though "Who cares if it's longer/bigger/wider?" A lot of people actually lol I'll leave the dick joke for someone else though.



Just saw this "there's another stock cooler that handles higher thermal load, and stays cooler, so is better". in your post further up, we obviously disagree on what makes something better then.

To me if the cooler was the same size yet performed better it would be better, if its bigger and performs better its simply scale.

Aye True enough, kept me occupied today though :laugh:



BTA I'll drop it if you agree to drop it too?

If you want to argue further we can do it via PM should you like :laugh:

i'm no genius n haven't even taken physics or anything yet but i gotta say imperialreign sounds dead on.

I see BTA's point and panthers as well...i think lol. GTX 480's stock coolers sucks due to the fact that for its use it is more innefficient than other stock coolers. If your just looking at the heatsink and nothing else, then one could definitely say its probly the best stock cooler by design that we've seen from nvidia. Sorta like...hmmmm analogy....if you have a say 17/32 nut for an 18/32 bolt, is the 17/32 nut bad? no its just not the right component to compliment what its job is for. will it still work? fuck if i kno lol it'll be a pita if it does just like Nvidia's heatsink.

I'm arguing on his pane. Not only am I saying that "it barely handles its intended application", but also "there's another stock cooler that handles higher thermal load, and stays cooler, so is better".

But he was also bringing the "in the same size contraint" comment into the discussion. I am not sure how that would change the overall outcome of the measurement but it is worth mentioning if you are in fact talking about the same thing. I think we have reached a point of escalation that we might need to have you two agree to disagree on the subject. It won't change the facts on the table regardless.

We're talking about "the best", so in that argument it doesn't count which is bigger. A lot of people can't actually run GTX 480 in their systems, a lot of cases can't handle its heat. Hell, NVIDIA tells users they shouldn't just do SLI on any case (chassis) and recommends a "certified cases list".


To me if the cooler was the same size yet performed better it would be better, if its bigger and performs better its simply scale.

To me better is better. HD 5970's cooler is the best stock cooler since it's handling higher thermal load and staying cooler. GTX 480's cooler is not better than that of the HD 5970. You already acknowledged it should have been longer (so you concede it's inefficient at its size).

No, he just asserted it's the best stock cooler without "size to size", in that he's wrong.

True if I had said that, how ever I did specifically state for single GPU.

In that, I'm probably right eh?


Infact my exact wording was

"the cooler is EASILY the best stock ( I.E from nv and ati) cooler I've seen for a single GPU card."

Which pretty much covered my ass if there's a better single GPU stock cooler as well, by stating that its the best single gpu cooler I have seen : ]



All cleared up now?



*edit* I want to apologise to everyone that didn't find the discussion amusing/enlightening in some-way, should of made my points and left, or just kept editing one post!
When it comes to arguments/discussions I get pretty passionate.

I'm sure a lot of you can understand that though.

Wrong. Size to size, a GeForce 210 passive heatsink that weighs as much as a few coins and is as big as a baseball card keeps its GPU cooler. Hence size-to-size it's better. You said "best stock cooler" without stating "for single GPU".

It was here where you made that assertion, without any for "single GPU clause".

Bta I'm not even going to reply, this is getting silly even by my standards.

I'll probably clash with you in another thread sometime though! : ]

You made direct assertions, backed those assertions when you could, took tangents (but it's bigger/ size-to-size / single-GPU / but I said xxx ) when you couldn't, and now you're defining standards. Good job.

Has anyone tested how hot fermi gets when manually setting the fan to 100%?

I really dont think a t-rad or accelero extreme style cooler would work very well here, with heat levels like this you NEED to be exhausting heat out of the rear... i wouldnt be surprised if aftermarket coolers for this card all have big ass ducting systems to get more heat out the case

I wonder if we'll see more of those cases with 'wind tunnels' for the graphics cards soon?

They'd need earplugs to test 100% :p
"This picture was taken during the temperature testing shown above and it shows the GeForce GTX 480 screaming along at 67dB at 85% fan speed, which is ~4200RPM. This is not a silent video card by any means." -LegitReviews

Have read just couple test no 100% mention in them, propably because it's already too loud under 100%.

For the 'exhaust of the rear' 1 pci-slot hole versus 3x 120mm holes ;) People have been obsessing years about coolers pushing hot air out of the rear. If only thing you have is one 120mm output fan (or worse) then yes stock type cooler is best. I'd rather get a new case first in which you don't have to worry about what sort of cooler is in it, than get a worse performing rear output cooler.

For me it's like this, 30C cooler GPU > 2C hotter CPU. I have 250W of heat coming out of the case while gaming and you can easily feel that placing hand over the top of the case. Difference is that it's not burning, like it is with stock cooler exhaust, just lukewarm.

And no there won't be any wind tunnels. ATI and NVIDIA need to start making dual/quad and so on cores, like CPU makers have been. Make it simpler and use more. Now we are at a limit that 2 slot cooler simply doesn't work anymore. Unless they make stock cooler 3 slots wide this is as far as it goes without improvements on energy consumption.

edit: ATI example; HD5750 crossfired outperforms HD5850 and costs less. HD 5770 crossfired outperforms HD5870 and cost less. Crossfire versions consume just a little more power but if you'd make a dual core out of them I'm sure it would be less. A quadcore 5770 would kick even GTX 495's butt, consume less wattage and cost less than ONE GTX 480.

its called a 5970 lol

damn nvidia.. why did you have to go mess everything up.. now prices will continue to suck.

would be nice to see a 2gb 384bit 5890 :rockout:

That costs way more than anything out there and isn't really even available. Dual core isn't the same as GPU sandwitch even if you make them sit close to each other on gaming class :)

I want to see two GPUs on same silicon. One for low end, two for performance and four for high end. Then top that with SLI/Crossfire if you are not happy.

many debates i see about heat, cooler,design... etc....

someone correct me if i'm wrong but is not the cooler fault.

every gpu or cpu get hot due the power leakage

a perfect gpu or cpu has minimal power leakage with minimal heat output

the fact that fermi is hot is a design flaw as TSCM use the same production line also for amd.

we won't see any improvement in future revisions because there 2 many transistors packed and the design won't be improved only if they cut from transistor count which imply a new gpu in my opinion.

i think they force the limit of current technology with their monolitic big design,however their approach seems viable but not perfect

I think with Cryostasis (that got my card really hot) or some other games with PhysX you'd go over the 250W too. Don't remember did Batman AA have a same impact.

So Nvidia claimed 295 and you pulled 320? Yeah I'm with Wile E on this one. Thats just a bold face lie. I would be SO pissed off if I bought one of these and my PSU couldn't take the load.

nvidia claims 250 W "TDP (max board power)" which means "we measure 3-4 games and take the highest single reading"
