Ice Posted March 26, 2000 Report Posted March 26, 2000 THE FOLLOWING MSG IS BEING POSTED BECAUSE IM A NICE GUY AND IT WILL SAVE U A MILLINIA WORTH OF EXTREME PAIN!!!!!********************************************* DANGER, DANGER, BC3K VODOO 3 USERS!!!! If u are like me an love your hardware and also are a nut about preventing its failure then continue to read, but if u like spending countless hundreds of dollars on stuff then dont waste your time --- LeAvE NoW!!! --- ********************************************* If u own BC3K an a VODOO 3 then u should know that when u go into a zombified state while playing dereks best work so far (B3CK), your 3DFX VODOO 3 card will become hot enough to cook eggs off of. (WARNING.... DO NOT - I REPEAT - DO NOT ATTEMT TO COOK EGGS OFF YOUR CARD... THAT WOULD BE STUPID AND WOULD MAKE U STUPID 'FER DOING IT) now to prevent the early death of such a beutiful work of art (VODOO 3), go to your local computer hardware store and buy a 486 CPU COOLING FAN, make sure its the small one! install on the vodoo and connect to your power supply... if the screws are too small get slightly larger ones (COMPUSA is the best place for this.... i get all my hardware there for 'bout 20% less than other places.... got me VODOO 3 card for $100 + TAX) once you have gotten off your big fat *** to do this u may go back to playing dereks best work of art so far (BC3K) knowing that your new toy will not fail u in the near or maybe far future. ********************************************* NOTE TO SC AND EVERYONE ELSE: I got me VODOO on the 21ST of march and love the graphics but in order to keep em without wasting extra money u need to prolong the life of your hardware.Long live the VODOO 3 And long live dereks great games!!!!!! ********************************************* ------------------ ***************** CMDR Ice GVC-U.S.S.

Rattler Posted March 26, 2000 Report Posted March 26, 2000 Nice hint there Ice, but I'm getting pretty tired of your methods of posting. All Caps P!@@@!#$ me off! Too much fluff does the same thing. Just thought you might want to know that for future reference. Again, thanks for the info on the overheating. Somebody will need to know that information soon, BCM's going to be a real time burner. ------------------ Rattler, Insurgent One Commander-In-Chief, Insurgency Official BC3K Tester [email protected] ICQ 12894104"Long Live The Insurgency, Long Live Mother Earth, And Long Live Battlecruiser Developers and Fans!"
Ice Posted March 26, 2000 Author Report Posted March 26, 2000 aaaah yes BCM -will- push it over.... so u all have been warned.... money it too valuable to waste btw sorry 'bout the caps.... just trying to get the point across------------------ ***************** CMDR Ice GVC-U.S.S.

Parias Posted March 26, 2000 Report Posted March 26, 2000 I agree with Rattler.. I had to read that post. 3 times. And I'm a pretty damn good reader too But seriously, I won't have to worry about overheating at all, and I'm already self-trained in the fine arts of minimal nourishment (I have an average of 2 meals a day).. all I'd have to worry about is utter and complete lack of sleep ------------------ Cmdr.

Guest Ron Wallin Posted March 26, 2000 Report Posted March 26, 2000 That's one way to fix it, ICE, but it's not the best. The best in vid processor cooling is TennMax.They produce cooling solutions for the TNT's and Voodoo3's.Also, 3dfxcool produces a rig that is guaranteed to NOT void your vid card warranty.I've installed various solutions for customer's overheating video cards and these two companies provide the best solutions. (I personally use the two above in my own systems.)[This message has been edited by Ron Wallin (edited 03-26-2000).]
Ice Posted March 26, 2000 Author Report Posted March 26, 2000 your right... this isnt the best way to fix it and not best way to save space in there ( it can get bulky depending on what card u use this on) but for $13 its worth it------------------ ***************** CMDR Ice GVC-U.S.S.

Ice Posted March 26, 2000 Author Report Posted March 26, 2000 YEY!!!!!! after 'bout 2 hours of running this setup my entire card is at room temp (last night the whole damn board was cooking its self) and the heat in the area where the processor is located is down 'bout 20 degrees F------------------ ***************** CMDR Ice GVC-U.S.S.

Guest aramike01 Posted March 27, 2000 Report Posted March 27, 2000 This is probably the most difficult thread I've ever tried to follow!
