• Recommend a VGA Cooler?
    6 replies, posted
So I fucked up and broke one of the fans on my video card. So now even though the idle temp didn't change the load temp is now ~113C. So could someone suggest what would be a good and fairly cheap cooler for a Radeon HD 4850? Never have messed with after market GPU coolers but here are the two I'm debating between.

I recommend you under-clock until you replace the cooler.
Also download something like rivatuner and increase the speed of the remaining fan.
Take the plastic fan off -> Stick a 80mm fan over it -> Tape / ziptape it there Easy.
