SOB fan on it evidently has gone south (At least the plastic shield is sort of crumpled and melted,oops) Have had the weird shut down of video in SIMS2 and I had checked the fan on the card about a month ago and it wasn't crumpled then. But today I thought I had way too much heat coming out of the exhaust fans so I shut down and whew that puppy would burn ya!So I pulled the card and not a pretty sight. RMA' ing the card is more hassle than it's worth, it works until it gets scorching hot. But which fan for it?
Found a Zalman ZF700 I think will fit it and one made by Logisys Copper VGA Cooler. Both supposed to fit the FX5700 card. Y'all got a personal preference?
Go to the link below and pick me one.
Thanks

Also have another board coming to test. Another Shuttle Zap's sending me to see if it's the board itself that's causing the boot problem.

In the meantime, here I sit video card in hand on Sonny's machine....because SIMS2 crumpled the fan on my FX5700...talk about a tough game. LOL
