I think you could put together a rig that would be pretty silent when not gaming. I guess the trick would be to find the most quiet cards that you can use in an SLI setup. I don't think any of the passive solutions will work only because there is no room for two sets of heatsinks and heatpipes. Fans...

Aloha & welcome Brian! Glad you can Fold for the team! Yeah, if you get any corrupted/aborted work units, that is a sign to drop the overclock a bit, or up the voltage. It might only happen every so often -- I still have a mild oc at stock voltage, but all errors went away after dropping back a few...

"Hello", from a SPCR and FAH newbie! SPCR gave me tons of information needed to piece together my first rig, so I decided to join up with the team to do my small part. First time folding, and first time overclocking so I guess I'll see how stable everything is...especially with late summer temps her...

Tom,

I'm looking forward to your pics! I have been trying to figure out a way to mount a fan up in front of the HD cage for a bit.

Thanks in advance!

I'm running the same card with a ZM80D and it seems to be doing okay. Temps (as seen through the Control Panel) are 62C at idle, and into the high 70's after gaming for a bit. Ambient is around 29C, 63% humidity if that matters. This is just about the same temps I got with the stock fan, but without...

Pretty sure. Two 12V rails, one 120mm fan that sits under the unit, and 2.0 printed on the green label (IIRC). It is definitely not the 380S that they have listed on their site. :o Where did you purchase the Sonata from? Comp USA, Honolulu, HI Funny thing is that the box and manual show the 380S. G...
