Tkpenalty's X1950~HD4k Clubhouse

I have an Accelero lying around doing nothing since I warranty returned my 1800XT.

Its been confirmed, same temps >_>. But I would say your RAM modules are getting heated (that just proves that AcceleroX2 is more popular than VF900CU though).

Well at the very lease it is 100 times better than the stock cooler

I don't really see the ram are getting near as hot as the core, actually.

Time to make a Zalman signature.

Ok. Here are some better pictures with some updated cable manglement.

Hey man read the rules of the club, if you haven't realised you arent in yet.

Its marginally better but not much, i would say it would be better to move the 4pin 12V connector UNDER the motherboard tray then from the top of the tray, going down.

See this is what I hate about reversed PSU cases without the lower drive bays.. .clutter D=.

UPDATE OF RULES:

DO NOT USE THE SIGNATURE UNLESS YOU HAVE BEEN ACCEPTED INTO THE CLUB VIA A PM

erocker · Feb 10, 2007

Frankly, I think that "clubs" are kind of rediculous and really not nessecarry. I just like my card. I'm going to go use it now. L8r.

tkpenalty · Feb 10, 2007

um whatever

Well, the X1950XTX will slightly pawn your X1900XTX

AshenSugar · Feb 10, 2007

hehe i can get 700 range on core, still testing for max ram clocks tho

Tatty_Two · Feb 10, 2007

Well the 1900 this or that is irrelivent, there are more than one NVida cards out there that Own XTX's at the moment, it's more about what you need and what you are happy with, when it turns into being "Mine is better than his" then some really rich guy who works for NASA will just own us all.

As this is the X1950 clubhouse and not the X1900 clubhouse, whatever you are gunning for is quite irrelativant :laugh:

I was not "gunning for anything" (if you were reffering to me and not Ashen?) meerly pointing out that "tit for tat" who's card is faster is irrelivant, there is always a faster card around the corner, unless of course you like playing that game....who has the best whatever............

X1950XTX > X1900XTX, nuff said.

Omg.. I see a bloody tosser outside (slang for a guy who doesn't put the rubbish in the bin, not a wanker).

*Comes back*

How do I get the Powercolor X1950PRO Extreme's new AcceleroX2 VRM unit? I tried email but its taking a while. Btw, the VRMs don't get very hot though.

Tk sorry I was bein' a bitXX

, my cat died. Anyways, I'm gonna start taking a freakin drill to my lame Antec 900 case. The motherboard tray has 3 screws in the back on one side and a few interlocking hinges on the other. Those great people at Antec however, decided to rivet the bottom. :banghead:

D=... Um buy a new case and use the antec 900 as a coffin (you must be rich).
I don't understand why antec would rivet their cases >_>.

I don't like cases that don't have a lot of space between the motherboard and the drive bays, antec 900 is one of them unfortuneately. I like the lian li "Seperate compartment" type.

And I can get a Lian Li easily, since the factories are located in next door~

Diu lei lo mou! Deng go fai, ju gum kun!!!!! Nuff said with the Kanto....

So... Zubasa sorry to say this but, the VF900 CU isn't better than the AcceleroX2. Does anyone know how to control the fan speed on the X1950PRO? The so called "fan speed control" isn't working, I turned the fan on 0% and...*Sneezes* it kept going. Apparently, it's following the normal PVM. Not at 100%.

Lian Li's are so expensive BUT I WANT ONE, I was honestly thinking about getting a crappy Presler Pentium D + X1600PRO 128mb and then with that premium... a lian...li...case T_T.

should i change the stock fan on 1950XTX!

If you want to oc the card then yes I would! All depends on your temps to start with! When running clocked to max and it is in high 60/70's then change it!

Raise your clock on cpu, this will bring your fsb up with it, try and keep the ram 1:1, alsways checking temps as you go and stability!

Is your card over heating at all?
That cooler on the X1950XTX is one of the best stock coolers out there.

i'm running my sapphire x1950 on a Enermax Noise Taker 420Watt. no issues what so ever, this psu has dual 12v so I believe its 29-30a total. And with all the junk I have in my system I was kinda worried but no problems at all. I do need to replace the stock cooler tho, i've read the whole thread. Still not sure which is the better cooling route. Is the Ac X2 compatible with this card, or is the Zalman setup a better solution. Also pretty sure I heard they were releasing a revised X2 for the Pro?

erocker · Feb 11, 2007

Should I put some AS5 on my HIS IceQ3 x1950 or leave it? I'm just not sure what HIS uses.

I've heard good arguments for both. From what I hear the X2 does a little better job cooling thant the Zalman except it blows the hot air on the mobo.
