Hello, I noticed in the nvidia control panel the temperatures of the these two graphics cards (sli) are 50 degrees celcius in idle mode ! That's pretty high ! Add to the fact that the gfx fans are probably spinning very slowly because of idling,

Hi Jim, When you were here, you were looking at my connection and download speed. What program did you use to see what was going on and what did you conclude? Thanks, Dad

Has anyone found it helpful to install a chipset cooler on the Southbridge chip? Obviously, ASUS does not think it is necessary except they provide holes on the mainboard to mount a heatsink.

(also posted to 24hoursupport.helpdesk) I have kind of a homebrew system: Asus m/b, Nvidia Gforce 5200 graphics card, 1 Gig RAM. I had been keeping my desktop running but turning off the monitor to save electricity. A couple of days ago, I turned on the monitor and there was no video output.

Thanks for those who made great suggestions about a replace P/S for my A8n-SLI Deluxe. I think the PCPC power supplies are at the top, and I also liked the OCZ as well...but I saw some new ones with "modular cables" that seem to allow me to control the number I cables I really need. Are these...

1. Wanting to push the voltage on the cpu higher. 2. Overall better load temps. 3. Better Noise / Performance ratio. Why would one decide to cool a computer with water instead of air ? -- Watercooling ------------------------------------------------------------------------
