Radeon 9800 Pro

[tech311]

Does anyone out there that has an ATI 9800 Pro card having any heat issues? I was looking for an alternative cooler, and I was hoping to use a Peltier cooler, but I'm not sure if that's possible? Anyone know? Please let me know asap. Thanks!

Anyone? I'm just wondering what would be the best cooler for this card.

Thanks!

Well, unless you are hardcore overclocking you should not have any heat issues. If you want to upgrade your heatsink, you might want to check with Thermaltake. They make some pretty good cooling heatsinks. Here is the link:

Companies like ATi and nVidia wouldn't dare sell a card that required you to purchase aftermarket cooling out-of-box. But on the issue of overclocking, Dave is right.

Tit for tat, butter for fat, ATi's dog kicks nVidia's cat
