And it begins again - COOL those new cards

[ALBPM]

Guess what I just got from Allstarshop.com and I've already put a fan on it.



I used the same Crystal Cooler fan that I had on my G200. Fits nicely without screws.

That sure looks nice...

Damn it, wish I had one of those...

Say again, where did you get that fine looking tablecloth, it's a must-have item for all Matroxaholics...

[Jorden]

That's not a tablecloth, but his wallpaper....

Good job Pauly... Sure hope with that helicopter on your card, that you screwed down your PC really good on your desk!!

That's so Hunsow won't make fun of my messy desk...LOL

Now Steve, don't even post a picture of that wimpy 16MB card here with my 32MB card.

[LAMFDTK]

Nice card is it the real deal ALBPM? I saw the same Deal at ALLSTARS. What are you doing for a bumpmaping game DRAKAN-DEMO?
Let me know... How much of a performance hit you get at 1024X768 32-bit w/ the BM thats the key for me ....Good luck with that "disco" fan heheh

ALBPM: where did you get that fan from?

do you have a webpage URL?

[Terell]

Hmmmm...I got my G400 today too. Yay! Its been in for about 4 hours now and all I keep saying is "Oh my god! I can't believe that!!"

This card rocks! I ran the Drakan demo today at 1280x1024x32. It got as slow as 20 fps....not bad I thought considering my Voodoo2 12meg was doing 800x600x16 at only 25-50 fps.

To say I'm pleased with this card is an understatement.

However, back to the topic. I'm looking at getting one or two Card Coolers...anyone tried those yet on the G400?

[Terell]

Oh, I forgot to mention my system.

P-II 400
256 meg PC133 SDRAM
32meg G400 DH

And Unreal at 1280x1024x32 rocks!

[ALBPM]

Hey rickT, I got a couple of those Crystal Coolers at a small local PC shop, sorry no url for ya.

Hey LAMFDTK, do ya know were I can get some colored lights to reflect off this Disco fan...Heheh

Yeah, good story paul. You probably stole some of your wife's crystal and carved them yourself. But anyways, those things must be a nightmare to keep looking nice, my black fans can't stay dust free for more than an hour.
