I have a
GeForce4 Ti 4200 128Meg Xstasy by Visiontek vid card
Athalon 1600+ xp cpu
MSI K7T266 pro2 motherboard
512Meg DDR ram
40 gig and 20 gig Westerdigital hdd
500w powersupply
winxp pro
I already have several case fans (2 of them aftermarket fans runnen at 7500rpm) but if i dont have side cover off and 6 inch desktop fan blowing at back of vid card and 20 inch house fan blowind at side of case my vid card will lock up when playn games such as ghost recon. Its a new card out of box retail from best buy running at stock speeds.
Anyone else having same problems with card and is it fixable by reataching heatsink with new thermal paste.with the 2 oversized case fans and oversized cpu fan my computer sounds like a jet engine.
oh and my previous card same brand but only GF2 Ti doesnt lock up at all with case closed.
Any info, suggestions, or help will b greatly appreciated
