aquagraFX G200 problem

Saturday, December 20th 2008, 9:32pm

Hello folks.

I seem to have a major problem with my aquagraFX G200 cooler on my Asus GTX260 TOP.
Looks like the cooler doesnt reach the GPU if i watch my temps.
In idle i get ~60c temps, and on load, it just bumps up to 115c in a few seconds and shuts down.

Anyone else having problem with this?
Any suggestions?

Regards.

I would recommend to remove the block and check if everything had proper contact.

Also a possible reason for the bad temperatures could be that the screws around the GPU are not tighten strong enough. You could tighten them a little bit more and test if it would make a difference. If so, just continue but be careful!

It only had contact to one small corner of the GPU, which resulted in massive overheating.
It was not possible to tighten the screws any more that I already did.

Mhhh, it might be also possible that your card is not 100% identical to the reference layout. We also had this problem with some HD4870 cards. They looked exactly the same but the height between the RAM and GPU was a little bit different.

Other people who got problems with this card and the aquagraFX G200 cooler?
