Frinik - Yes our English Summers are reassuringly fleeting!! We did have one this year though it came early. Mrs Panzer Commander is looking for winter quarters and a good defensive position. Me --- I'm looking for an easy life
Hope your graphics card cuts it for you albeit a model down.
I just had a problem where my card just overtemped (95deg C) had a bonging warning so I checked the temp quickly (on the V Tune utility) and shut off right away. On checking the fan had ceased to operate. Cut a long story short ordered the Akasa Vortexx Neo ---- replacement h/s and fan ---- as supposed to fit my 9800GTX+ but did it ( No rollocks!!!!)
Now it does!! after snipping the aluminium fins with Mrs Panz Cdr's nail scissors and cutting out the plastic casing in 3 places (araldite-ing some reinforcing plastic back as stiffening) and having a minor wiring change (now to PSU no fan control now from the card connection - as 100% all the time) it seems to work OK. Took 3 days on and off to mod the "preferred solution". Need some more tests but looks like running just above 50 deg c on GPU intensive apps.
Down side Mrs Panzer Cdr is having trouble cutting her prehensile nails now with the mangled nail scissors - I could be in trouble soon. I suggested that her nails had thickened up dramatically because she's getting old tough and brittle
Anyway I love the look of Zees work to date - it's looking superb. I agree with youre comment about a degree of replayability, if it could ever be introduced by randomising some elements this game could last forever (well almost !!). Mind you Zee has a shed load of work here I can only marvel at his ability and competence and wish I were ten per cent as good!!
Mind you where graphics card coolers are concerned I'm your man!! have scissors will travel
All the best - Mort
