Hi,
I am running two 5870 in crossfire (no overclock) and the fan on one of those (the top card - primary) starts making a funny noise when the speed increases. I guess its almost at the end of its life cycle. So I am thinking about replacing the heatsinks on both of them. They also get really hot ~79C when playing some of the graphics intensive games ex: The Witcher 2, GTA4 (ICEnhancer mod) etc. I was wondering if you guys can help me decide on a great cooling option which will not only lower the temperature but be long lasting as well.
I must tell you that I have 3 GPUs currently on 3 PCIe slots on my ASUS P6T. The last one is a nVidia 8800GT for Physx. I plan to keep all three GPUs there so I need a solution which doesn't imply 3 PCI slot options. I hope you guys have some cool ideas.
Thank you in advance.
