I bought a geforce4 TI4600 from Gainward a few month ago and I would like to make it a little bit more silent. I already considered two solutions but they seem impossible in my case :
- Zalman ZM80-HP, but there is not enough room above the agp slot as I'm using a dual athlon (A7M266)
- Custom heatsink with a panaflo at 7 or 5 V, but that would use too many of my 5 PCI slots (i'd like to fit an SCSI board for my Ultraplex 40, an ethernet card and an USB card (as USB is not working on the A7M266)
Here comes the questions :
How low can you underclock a Geforce4 ?
How low should I go so that the cooling device used is quiet and does not use more than 0/1/2 PCI slots ?
Will it have an effect on 2D performances ?
thanks,
