Well, I have a Leadtek/Winfast 6800LE with a large copper cooler on it, inside an Antec Aria case. I actually run the card without it's fan and use an adjacent slot cooler to reduce noise significantly, but thus the GPU runs hot (idles 59C - burn as high as 90c as per RivaTuner).

Now, I haven't had artifacting or anything, but of course temps *that* high freak me out. What I'm wondering is if I can safely apply Arctic Silver to the core - I removed the cooler before so I know he thermal seal has been compromised, but I want to make sure I use the riht compount to redo it.

I've read some people have done it but I also read Arctic Silver Ceramique does not void your warranty. I wouldn't bother with AS5 myself although they say it's 2 or 3 degrees cooler than Ceramique.

BTW, the Arctic Cooling Silencers are pretty silent.

Just don't put it on your RAM.


Yup. Although if you have Arctic Silver Ceramique, that stuff works great on RAM (and it's non-conductive).

I usually put AS5 on the core and Ceramique on the RAM chips of my video card.
