    Well, the stock cooler on my Ti4200 is really awesome. I've hit 290/581 (from stock 250/512) before with no problems. I dont wanna go higher though cause the pins do a s****y job holding down the heat spreaders on both sides, and the thermal grease doesnt even touch half a RAM chip in places, so the heat spreaders on the RAM are no where near their full potential. I'm going to buy some arctic alumina thermal adhesive to glue down the heat spreaders to the RAM chips, then I'll be pass 300/600 easily. Did I mention that it's almost silent too? Cheers to MSI, they did a great job in designing it (although the workmanship leaves some improvement :p). : peace2: Mista K6

        will this cooler fit to my asus TI 4600 Ultra. i've had certain lapses with the software telling me that the bog standard cooler is no longer as efficient. i also occasionally get the software chaning the threshold limits to lower. and automatically thowing up vga errors. I know its not the PSU as its a quality Enermax

          I just got this sweet puppy and it overclocks and runs like a dream because of the great IceQ cooling solution. It is very similar to Abit's OTES, and basically leaks out all of the heat made by this beast through an extra PCI slot. It also has fan settings high and low, using a neat little switch in the back of the case when installed, and runs absolutely noiseless on high.

            You guys know of any video card coolers that are compatible with the All In Wonder 9800 Pro? My card is overheating very bad, and its not even overclocked.

              That is probably due to your case temperature, but look around in this thread...you see a bunch of coolers, the thermaltake gaint 3 looks good. :cheers:

                I have getto cooling.

                9700AIW pro

                I used a Zalman chipset cooler seen in pic 1(The Blue thingy). And a High flow 40mm fan I took from a HD cooler, then I added a PCI slot fan seen in pic 2.
                In pic 3 you can see the Ram sinks I added to the ram and to the back of the GPU, this is also where I stuck the thermal prob.

                before the mod I would get 60C off the probe at full load and 26C case temp.
                Now I get no higher than 52C at load.

                its strange I know but it works.

                  Anyone know if the Zalman ZM80C-HP will fit the All In Wonder cards? The tv turner does take up quite some space in the AIW cards, but does anyone know if it will get in the way?

                      Hey polar, how did you make those RAM sinks?? Or did you buy them premade to perfectly fit?? Also, what did you attach them with? And finally, what kind of a card is that?

                          I bought the Ram sinks like that. From a guy off of AMDMB Trade/sale threads.They have thermal tape on the back.

                          it was just luck of the draw that one fits on the back of the GPU socket, But it sure makes a difference in temps.
