    How Does Dual Slot PCI GPU's Venting Work?

    I only have 1 120mm fan that blows air out my case near the CPU and that is at the top back portion of my case which doesn't reach my GPU. I'm thinking of upgrading my card to something like the GTX 280 or 295 and I'm worried that I'll need extra cooling. My case doesn't have any front or...

    How Does Dual Slot PCI GPU's Venting Work?

    Does the fan inside the case suck air from the case and blow it out the back? Or is it the other way around? I'm planning on installing a 120mm fan at the back of my case below the card, so will it benefit me to blow air in or outside my case with a dual slot card?

    Old 65nm GTX 260 is MORE EXPENSIVE than 55nm Version

    What? If you are trying to sell off our old cards that are inferior to the new ones, why would you drive the price UP?

    Old 65nm GTX 260 is MORE EXPENSIVE than 55nm Version

    Is there a reason that Newegg is selling the old 65nm GTX 260 for $10 more than the new 55nm version? In fact, if I recall correctly, even the old GTX 260 sold for less than what they are asking now. I thought the new 55nm process was supposed to LOWER prices, not RAISE them. $279.99...

I'm trying to get a slot fan because I want to cool my GPU but the case fans are too high up and don't...

    What is the maximum GPU a E8400 can handle?

    Even if I'm just changing my video card to something like GTX 280? I thought the dual slot venting makes it so I don't need another case fan.

    What is the maximum GPU a E8400 can handle?

    All I have for the E8400 is the stock fan, and I have never overclocked before. Also, I only have 1 case fan that blows air out the back, so I don't really want to mess with things too much. Would I gain that much of a performance boost by overclocking?
