what's the diameter on those fans? and where does the hot exhaust air from these fans go? if it just blows out through the card's sides and then recirculate inside the case then it's a fail.
They always do that, only the stock ones push the air out of the back these days.Quote:

Just flip it round, job done
Good thinking, thanks !...:)Quote:

I know the feeling.
I need to gut my PC, but unless it suddenly breaks there's absolutely no chance of that happening :p
With this much heat, it's actually better to have axial fans than a radial slot cooler, because there's such a vast amount of air being moved you'd need a screamer of a fan to get it all through such a tiny space. Anyone buying such an overpowered card would have a case with suitable ventilation, so a cooler like this really, is beneficial. It certainly will be for me.
