Im thinking of getting the hr-03 GT, looks like a very efficient heatsink.

Hmm so has anyone else had problems with this card going to black screens every now and again, its really annoying whilst playing a game and the screen goes black (only for a second) but can happen several times in a row.

I have seen other people reporting the same problem on forums but don't know if its a driver problem or the card. (they don't seem to be any the wiser either)

It's not power or heat related as power supply is 700 watts and temp is generally below 60c at high loads.

no, besides the insuficient heat sink n loud fan, card works fine atm, could be driver issue.

Nice, I should be getting one soon myself I think.

I figured out what the problem with the black screen was also, basically the DVI 2 HDMI adapter that came with the card was shit (i'm guessing something to do with HDCP), it was responsible for the lack of full RGB I was getting as well.

Did you get ramsinks aswell, what is your ram temp ?

You can use GPU-Z to check them.

    Loakum Ugh….scratch that previous comment. The upcoming Game of Thrones video game is a F’in mobile phone game. Why can’t they came an open world GoT game, like Witcher 3 or God of War? (> 3 Months ago)
