GF2 TI Temps?

[Fintan6]

I am overclocking a Leadtek GF2 TI and am wondering if anyone knows what temps I should keep the chip edge and surface below?

 

[10GHZ]

what temp is the card running on now?

 

[Fintan6]

The chip is running at 47 C on the edge and 55 C on the surface.

How can you tell at what temp your graphic card is running at??

Some version have an onboard thermal diode.
My don't have one, but I mounted one sensor of my DigiDoc5 in the heatsink to read the temp.

The Leadtek card has a hardware sensor to monitor temperature, voltage and speed of the chip, cooling module and board. I access the sensor by using the Winfox utility that came with the board.

it would be good 2 keep your temp the way they are after you over clock the card, but that's unlikely with stock hsf. i say u should mod it, put a pentium 4 hsf on it or somthing, the geforce board mostly comes with 4 additional mounting holes, make good use of those.
1st: get a CPU hsf that fits on your card, if it dson't ,u can always get rid of bits of it 2 make it fit

2nd: put the hsf on your card and make sure the core is in good contact with the hsf.

3rd: mark teh 4 hole on the bottome of the hsf and drill drill drill .....

4rd: put on some grease and screw the sucker in place

5th: take it for a test run and watch the temp drop

ps: the ideal hsf for this job would be the Thermal Take mini copper orb.. it performs alrite and it's not 2 big
