I actually have the AGP version of X1950XT

I can get a X1950XT to run under load with 350W PSU, I should get a medal

Some updates: I've recieved the RMAed card today. This card seem to bring bad luck. My new 500W PSU turned out to be Dead ON Arrival, and my old 7600GS is unexplictably broken, but the GeCube prevailed, on the 350W PSU! My system cannot drive the card with pelt installed, however, without...

I am under the impression that both fans cool the heatsink, and frankly, that seems no fan is cooling empty space. Also, the thing about pelt, it's not something that you imput power and remove heat, it's a HEATPIPE, that means, the heat is still there (even more, due to inefficency), and...

well, someone stole my card. They cut open the box and took it away, and it happened between manufacture and new egg, because shipping container was sealed. Anyway, I gonna rma it, and also, Aeros, how are you cooling your card? I think the heat sink is adequate (it's huge!), I just gonna...

Appearently my card was stolen during shipping.... (everything's there, except the CARD!), looks like I gonna have to talk with newegg....

Judging by your photo, I am under the impression that both the pelt and the GPU is cooled by one cooling block assembly, and when the pelt is added, I assume an added 50W or so of heat is placed onto the block, adding burden to it. I plan to test it first with the pelt on, and if my machine...

the thing about the pelt, is that it actuallys adds more burden to the overall cooling system. This system just doesn't make any engineering sense. It's kinda like adding a spolier to the back of a Toyota Camry. Here's my question, is the pet in direct cotact with the GPU? If not, I want to...

Hey, Thanks for the documentations provided. I just ordered that card, and it's not in my hand yet. Now, I have a couple questions. 1. I have antec 350W PSU, so I am thinking that the power supply could be an issue. As a result, I would like to remove the pelt from the cooling assembly...
