Its going into an Antec Overture 2 case. Just want to replace the horrible Heatsink and fan on the card. It blows hot air INTO the case ?????
I'am pretty sure it will fir into the case just not sure if it will fir the card as on the Artic site it says nothing about 7950
Thanks if you can help. This card gets to 70c plus at lead and thats a NO NO. it aint even overclocked yet :p
Thanks.
Leadtec 7950 GT 512 and NV Silencer 5 Rev 3. Will it fit ?

Welcome to SPCR!!!
I think that the 7950GT has the same layout as the 7900GT. The hole pattern and RAM placement is the same as the 7800GT the NV Silencer 5 R3 was made for, but the card is shorter, so to get it to fit, you need to saw off a bit of the plastic exhaust duct, an easy mod.
Check the forums if you like, there's already been plenty of discussion about cooling for the 7900GT.

I made the effort of using the search function to find my old post, so this might be a bit more explicit:
I got this from this forum.
70+ at load is ok for a graphics card, if it's your CPU, it's a bit on the hot side...
