Hey guys, I have the above card from leadtek and I would like to O/C it. However, i have a sensor on the back of the card and it is showing temps up around 125 degrees F. Does anyone have any clue on what can be done about this? I saw a mod on HardOCP, but I didnt want to go that extreme. Let me know. Thanks

Nah, not much you can do really. Alternatives are better heatsink and fan on the main cooler (top of chip), but the back will still get very hot. You can put a HS/fan on the back, but it needs to be flat (no surface components like small capacitors/resistors), but that will remove a lot of heat.

Any recommendations for a better HS/F for it? I have an old heatsink lying around from a Voodoo3 that I could try and rig to put on the back. It is just that the area to attach it is small.
