one question. why are you wanting a "silent" GFX card?

If only I had known, I could've avoided running my comp on 100c for 1.5 weeks for a measly 6 bucks.. I will dread if I see this chip break in the next 2-3 months. :P
On the positive, my SSD, GFX card and Noctua are on their way and will arrive here by Monday..... 8)
I would say you were right on the border of the chip shutting itself down. If you're not getting any BSODs then you should be fine.
Always expert advice here, so I ought I'd ask.. while installing my new cooler I managed bent 1 pin in my Mobo. Is this dangerous, provided it's not touching any other pins despite being a little bit off?
Edit: aight figured I need a new mobo now, learn to be more careful next time.
There we go! Installed new mobo and 2600 succescufully, albeit broke the hard drive when trying to transfer stuff in the progress.. I still got my SSD left.
How did you break your hard drive?
