Hello,
I have my own homebuild which runs well for me but I have a duel screen setup and like to watch shows on one while playing games that aren't very graphic intensive. However I know running through a browsers puts stress on video cards and thus my system will be fine for awhile, but my cards get very hot. The CPU is fine though and I have a great ventilation system for my computer so I think it is just the fans or the cooling system on my cards themselves. I currently have two SAPPHIRE 100355L Radeon HD 7850 2GB 256-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 HDCP Ready Video Cards through crossfire. I was wondering if I could get aftermarket cooling systems for the cards or at least one because sometimes only one seems to reach higher temps and also if I could how do I make sure I am purchasing something that will fit with my card and mobo. I love newegg and have been searching on there for stuff, but I am afraid of ruining my cards by trying something like this. I am capable of doing the project from what I've seen I just want to make sure I do not buy anything that won't fit for the most part. Any help on the subject is fine. Thanks!
