Upgrade graphic card on PC, what to buy ?
#24
Hi tacohashcat, thank you, the speed is great for my needs !
The cost it will be lower, it is set to bidding and the highest price will win, but I can agree with the seller since card is with me now for low price since it have problems. 2 6 pin connectors are not problem, my 5870 also use it, power consumption is not problem also, I have a strong PSU that can handle it without peoblems, my main goal is to find a cheap card that can fulfilling the needs. I know and agree with everything you said but 1050 I can only buy new for 140$, and this card if I manage to fix it, will be double cheaper sure, which It suits me very much, and I can sell it later...

Ok card is with me, I notice a problem with left fan, exactly how the salesman said, that he pull harder left fan with hoover when cleaning the card and that problem is since then.

The problem is that I can't believe this card does not have temperature sensors on vram and vrm !

It only show a cpu there is no Gpu temp #2 and #3 for vram and vrm like I have on my 5870.
Yes and I check all is marked, but it simply does not have it.

So the temperature in idle is with 20% fan speed below 30 degrees. Which is ok, but problem is that I can't see other temperatures, I don't try yet to full load it.
I think that this card is 100% ok it is like new, the problem is temperature in full load for sure since this left fan badly working.
I want to give it demanding jobs to do, but I can't see all of the temperature, what to do ?
