x800 stock cooler 100% vs ATI Silencer 4

[OnEMoReTrY]

Just letting you know on my vmodded card, I was getting 93C after 400 seconds of artifact scanning with the stock cooler @ 100%. With the ATI Silencer 4 I got 62C, and i let it run for a long time just to see, and the highest it gets is 63C, Thats 30C less!!! I never expected results like this. Just thought I'd share this to all of you who wanted a comparison of a stock at 100%.

I used to get 68-72C in games, now I am around 52-56C. And it's quieter to boot.

x800 stock cooler 100% vs ATI Silencer 4

At the max (and native resolution) of 1,280x1,024 and everything turned on "High" the temp on my HIS Excalibur X800 XT IceQ II PE (comes equipped with the Arctic Cooling ATI4) maxes out at 67C after playing multi-player Halo for several hours. Multi-player is much more taxing on the GPU than single-player because there is so much more stuff that the GPU has to render.

By default AA and AF are disabled in in the Halo settings, as there is no visual difference in the game.
