minus-square@Cort@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglish5•13 days agoCan’t you underclock it using MSI afterburner, so it’ll run cooler?
minus-square@Sturgist@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglish6•13 days agoSure! But my buddy had thrown away the stock cooling system and just gave me the card with the custom water block on it…
minus-squareThassodarlinkfedilinkEnglish3•13 days agoMaybe buy a broken one that has working fans and then yank the cooling.
minus-squareThassodarlinkfedilinkEnglish3•13 days agoLess work than setting up a water block solution lol
minus-square@Sturgist@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglish3•13 days agoYes, but then it’s also not as big a performance jump from what I have. I’m strategically lazy…
minus-square@Cort@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglish2•13 days agoWell, even underclocking it won’t make it run that cool. Sounds like a radiator & pump and tubing might be cheaper than buying a dead card and cannibalizing. Or you could always try to sell it and get a newer card
minus-square@Sturgist@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglish2•13 days agoYeah, just a whole lot of expenses going out right now. So even £150-200 is off the books for me atm
