cooling the ati xt1800 the card runs hot

Post by casey1004 »

My Dell demension 9100 mother board had no three pin fan power connector for my new zalman gpu fan. My fault for not checking before buying. Also new 550 watt power supply for dell 9100 mother board wont respond too to it. bought it http://store.911forpcs.com/dedi91posufr.html they tell me it should work. the site was the only one i could find that said they had a power supply upgrades dell 9100. Dell tech said 32 bit mother board can't hande that much juice what in hell is he talking about. Shot right down out of both barrells right into to the dell non-upgradeable stink hole.
I was realy looking forward to cooling the ati xt1800 the puppy runs hot I used some ceramique by artic silver helped some.
Thanks for that advice Ati fourm member.

Spamming just to enter the contest. What a noob.
