9800gx2 questions
first. what temps should this be getting stock clocks and running 100% with fan at 100%
second. what clocks are "safe" for this card. more interested in folding than gaming.
third. is this behemoth going to damage my M/B due to it's wieght? I could kill someone with this thing...The path to universal understanding starts here: Say what you mean, and mean what you say.

First I'm going to guess load should be around the 80s. Second Scott would have to fill you in on as I've never personally owned one. Third it'll be fine long as you use both screws.

I agree with PP, temps should hover in the 80 ish range full load, and the weight of the card be ok. I ran the 295 card from Nvidia with a water block and no problems as far as weight installed in a chassis and hooked up.

the gx2 is apparently rated up to 105C, which seems rediculously high to me. Originally Posted by PP Mguire

most of these dual GPU cards can get quite hot if there is not enough case ventilation. The new nvidia cards can go as high as 100C based on teh spec sheet. Personally, I prefer to keep the GPU temp around 85~90C or below at most. Of course, cooler is better
