Hanging Blizz1260 ...
« on: December 14, 2009, 11:46:31 PM »
Now that I got my Blizz1260 updated to 060 (PG rules:)), today I finally decided to play with it a bit and noticed that the old advice of leaving the trapdoor open might be a good one since even a Rev.5 060 get's too hot. But it creates another problem and that is the card actually tilts with it's own weight touching the table. A heatsink would solve the heat issue completely but they're too big and don't allow me to close the trapdoor. One of those with a tube to dissipate heat to another place would be cool, if anyone knows of one plz let me know...

Cheers
José

I had one of those when the card was a Blizz040. The fan would touch the table and stop so had to raise the computer. I'm gonna take some time later to do a good search on low profile heatsinks for chipsets, maybe I'll find something... One interesting thing is that just the heatsink is enouph if you don't overclock it too much.
