Arctic Cooler Silencer 1 for Radeon 9800

Anyone know where I can find a Arctic Cooler Silencer 1 for Radeon 9800? Or do you know if the Acceleron s2 will fit in a G4 Sawtooth with this v card?
Thanks

Hi-
Just don't let the fan get dirty. The 9800 is a hot card, and too much heat is bad. Since you also have a processor upgrade, you are adding lots of heat. The heat also affects the PSU, because it is all removed through the PSU, and hot air doesn't cool well. Hot PSU's, don't produce good power.
Another cooling option (and a good one) is a PCI slot fan that exhausts to the outside of the tower.
This Thermaltake has really good airflow, and will help cool your entire system.

Stock fan problems, Arctic Cooling Silencer Ultra 64 and MSI Neo4 Platinum

Hi,
A few days ago, the stock-fan of my Amd-64 CPU(+3000) started to running at 4500-5000 rpm at default speed, when before it had always done at 3000-3300. (official maximum stock amd-fan speed I think). To avoid so high and noisy default speeds, I have activated “Smart CPU Fan Target” in Bios to keep CPU under 50 º C and obviously now speeds are much lower. It helps to diminish the noise and to minimize the fatigue of fan, but obviously CPU run hotter. Even though I think it is in a safe range of temps (40 – 50 ºC). Nevertheless I’m worried about the odd behaviour of stock fan and what could happen in the future...
I wonder what could be wrong, cpu-fan, motherboard regulation cpu-fan system.
NB fan seems to work as always, running at 5000 rpm as ever (speed regulated by fan-mate 2). Not change is noted about.
I should aprecciate any suggestion about what is wrong ?
On the other hand, I have thought to substitute the stock-heatsink+fan by Arctic Cooling Silencer Ultra 64. But I have some doubts about it.
Does it fit in a Neo4 MB ?
I wonder if is possible to control the speed of Arctic Cooling Silencer Ultra 64 (not TC model) by Bios or under Windows via Core-Center as stock-cpu-fan is?
If anyone was so kind to help me.
Thank you very much,
M. Lin.

One idea is, try to disconnect your current HSF and see what happens.
I think nothing will happen because there is no alarm for it in this board...
Be well....
Thanks for the idea, but I think that it would be more prudent to wait for views about, of some owner of cpu-cooler-fan (thermal regulated or not), witch being set to start to turning at very low revolutions (ie:0--500) when computer power on.

I have the "no TC" version of the cooler. Maybe you missunderstood me. The mobo can controll the speed of the hsf. I can watch (with Everest 2.01) that it controls the speed between 2300 an 2000 rpm. The only thing i can't watch and therfore cannot confirm is how low the speed goes under 2000 rpm. Everest shows nothing when the speed goes under 2000 rpm and the core center tool from msi shows only "low", but no digits. Im sure, the fan turns with less than 2000 rpm but i don't no whether with 1500 or with 1900 or such. I can only confirm that the cooler is very silent when it turns with less than 2000 rpm. Then i dont hear the cpu-fan but only the other fans of my system (gpu, northbridge; five 80mm Papst Case fans). The Pabst fans stock rpm ist 2000 but i regulate them down to about 1300-1500.
For the northbridge i remove the stock cooler that turned with 8000 rpm. Now i use a Titan Copper VGA Cooler, TTC-CUVAB/RHS. The stock rpm of this cooler is 4500 rpm. I use the small Zalman Fan Control for this one to regulate it down to 3200 rpm. Measured with a temp probe the temp of the northbridge is now at 45 to 50 degrees C. I think thats a good compromise between heat and noise.
Yes, excuse me, at first I had misunderstood you. I interpreted that your cpu-fan was unable to turn under 2000 revolutions. I means only could be regulated between 2000 and 2300 rpm. But now, I'm quite sure what you means. Your tell me that the speed of the your cpu-fan is adjustable in all its range, from 0 to 2300, only that when it turns at least of 2000, the rpm reader programs are unable to report the speed. ok?

M Lin, why r u so set on this silencer product....here is a madshrimps review on a64 heatsinks. I would go with the xp90 for the same price or less. The link is here:
http://www.madshrimps.be/?action=getarticle&articID=224
Thank you for your advice, I already knew it was a poor performer compared to what you refer me, but, firstly, I have a chronic immune illness due which I suffer some disabilities that makes difficult to do manual labours myself . Second I use my computer for office-surfing-programming purposes. So my power needs are low, -I own a +3000 amd-64-, compared to most of you, I think (I’m not doing over clocking too).
To sum up, I’m going to pick this cooler (fan+heatsink) because is as easy of installing as stock one, enough to cool my cpu... (slightly better than stock one), and very cheap in my country. There is no more reasons to choose it.
A lot of thanks to all.

Does 10.5.6 Support Dual displays for Radeon 9800 Pro Mac Edition cards?

Does 10.5.6 Support Dual displays for Radeon 9800 Pro Mac Edition cards?
And is there driver updates for anyone using the all-in-ones HP printers...has anyone been able to use their scanners since the update? and has the dual screen support been added to avoid the blue screen on startup?

The ATI Radeon 9600 PC/Mac edition 256 MB should work in the MDD G4. It has two DVI ports (one is dual-link and can support a 30" display). You will need adapters for ADC displays.

ATI Radeon 9800 Pro Wierd Lines Bad Card -- The solution

After updating my Computer to 10.4.8, I frequently had odd lines and Weird Colored Shapes dancing across my screen. Restarting was the only thing that solved the problem but It started becoming more frequent as time went on, Every 30 minutes having to do a restart. The Graphics card is the Retail ATI 9800 Pro 256 Special Edition 8x AGP, the card is 6 months old.
I bought a Replacement 9800 and the problem was solved. I sent the damaged one to ATI/AMD and it took them two weeks to send me a new one. A lot of people are having the same problem, Don't waste you time trying to sleuth it like I did, just pull it and send it in for repair. ATI/AMD were pretty easy to deal with, I didn't even have to show them proof of purchase.
G5 Dual 2Ghz Mac OS X (10.4.8) 3.5 GB of Ram

Hi,
As has been stated above, the 9800 has heat issues in most Mac towers. I was politely told I didn't know what I was talking about, but I'm afraid I do and those who choose to ignore the hundreds of posts about this issue do so at their own risk. If you have a warranty, that's nice.
The Arctic Cooling Silencer 1 (Rev. 2) is a good brand of GPU cooler. It's your call, put a better cooler on the card or get another card. For $25 and 10 minutes work I'd put a cooler on it and see how it works.
BTW, a properly flashed PC 9800 is a very nice card and works the exact same as a Mac Edition. I have several.
Until the RoHS compliant ATI Mac Edition cards are available, it is VERY hard to find a better video card. The ATI x800xt 256MB is the best card for performance and it will push a 30" display - for over $300. Most vendors are saying 3 weeks availability and have been saying that for 6 months.
Regards,
Dave

Extra cooling needed for G4 MDD Dual 1.25 w/Radeon 9800?

I'm juggling graphics cards in my G4s. Some months back, I received a G4 MDD Dual 1.25 with a Radeon 9000. I migrated all my stuff from my G4 Digital Audio over to that, including my GeForce 4Ti card, and after some downloading of drivers, I was able to get the G4 DA running with the 9000.
A short time ago, I recieved a G4 MDD Dual 1.0 Ghz with a Radeon 9800 Pro 128M card (that's what the label says, anyway...). Two things were a little different, and they are what prompt my question. First, one of the PCI slot "covers" had been removed. This could simply be that the preior owner removed a card they needed for something else, of course. And second, there was rather a lot of foam (like for chair cushions) stuffed in places. I'm thinking that was to quiet the machine down.
So anyway, if I move the 9800 into my dual 1.25, will I need to "help" the cooling in any way? I'm thinking not, but since I've never dealt with these cards before, then perhaps there is common knowledge out there I'm unaware of.
Then, I'll have a G4/DA with 1/2Ghz Sonett processor & GeForce 4Ti, and a G4 MDD Dual 1.0 Ghz with Radeon 9000 to move on to new owners...

The Radeon 9800 is a warm card, but it isn't so terrible that the MDD can't use one.
The most important step for keeping the DP MDD cool is to enable Nap mode using CHUD:
567DFEE3-A0A8-4602-9722-FCFCD76D8837.html
Another important task is to replace the thermal compound on the Radeon 9800.
The cards are all older than the thermal compound was meant to last.
16196A0F-952B-47ED-A9F9-91F7B0ECA431.html
and
C874D84E-96DD-4DFF-9566-7C66BE065BB5.html
Use Arctic Cooling MX-4.
Also use it on the processors to get additional cooling benefits.
Use of Nap mode and replacement of the thermal compound should be all that is required to avoid heat issues.
The following are all additional cooling ideas to consider.
The mention of a PCI cooler is a good one. Placed along side the Radeon, it can help to rid the case of hot air produced by the graphics card.
This one is good help with minimum noise:
http://www.xoxide.com/thermaltake-cyclo-blue-slotcooler.html
The Radeon 9800 has a minimalist fan and heatsink.
The aluminum heatsink doesn't disipate heat as fast as copper, and the fans tend to bake out and fail.
Replacement with a third party cooler is a good idea, but the design of the MDD makes that difficult.
This little Vantec cooler is a good option for the 9800 in a MDD which has the memory slots filled:
http://www.vantecusa.com/en/product/view_detail/95
If the memory slots have two 1 GB DIMMs installed in the two slots furthest from the graphics card, then this cooler is fine:

RADEON 9800 cooling fan

I have a RADEON 9800 Pro Mac Edition 256MB in my QuickSilver 2002 mounted in the AGP slot. The 9800 cooling fan is very loud (grinding sound) after a cold startup then gets quiet after it warms up. I have looked at third party cooling fans for this RADEON and I have found the Zalman v700cu and the Arctic Cooling ATI Silencer 1, Rev. 2 that seem to be compatible. From the images of these two coolers it looks like the two mounting screws that project out the back of the garphic card are very close to the lower memory slot in my QuickSilver. I don't use the PCI slot next to the AGP slot so I know the coolers will be OK there.
My question is, has anyone actually tried one of these coolers in a QuickSilver 2002 and is there enough clearance between the mounting posts on the cooler and the memory card to prevent them from touching?

ATI fans are notoriously bad (read that as cheap). You will know the fan is going bad when you hear a loud whine or grinding noise after a cold startup or during heavy use. The fan went bad on my 9800 Pro 256 after just 5 months. I had to send the card to ATI for repair - nearly 3 weeks to get the card back. The replacement ATI fan started making noise after another 90 days. I can't see doing this on a regular schedule for the three year warranty term so I replaced the stock fan with an Arctic Cooling ATI Silencer 1, Rev. 2. It's easy to install. So quiet that I can't hear it run and my computer case and power supply fans run slower and with less noise than ever before due to the Arctic fan venting warm air out of the computer.
The Arctic Cooling ATI Silencer 1, Rev. 2 installed perfectly with no modifications and minimal effort. It has a 6 year warranty. I consider this modification the best thing you can do to protect the $250 (or whatever you pay) investment you make with the RADEON card. It's better than waiting for the stock fan to fail and cause your 9800 to melt down. Technically installing the Arctic fan voids the ATI warranty but I believe I could reinstall the old stock fan if the card needs other warranty repairs without anyone noticing the switch was ever made.
So your answers are yes and yes although I never had the monitor problem you describe. The ATI card is a good choice - keep it then download and install the latest drivers from the ATI/AMD web site and do yourself a favor and buy an Arctic Cooling ATI Silencer model for your card. Install it when you start to hear the stock fan going bad. You will be glad you did.
PS - many thanks to FangSuede for his excellent advice given to me.

Arctic Cooling VGA Silencer + Zalman CNPS7000 = Fit?

I'm thinking about getting an Arctic Cooling VGA Silencer for my Hercules 9800 Pro, but I was wondering if the back piece really fits between the AGP card and the Zalman CNPS7000. Right now my gfx has the special stock cooling on, a.k.a Hercules-style with copper RAM-sinks and a copper heatsink for both the front and the back (back of the card, that is) of the GPU. It's a pretty tight fit to get my SATA cable through them.
Will it fit?
I'm also wondering if the VGA Silencer fits on my card? It does have non-stock cooling, but it's the same layout if you remove the heatsink and RAMsinks.

How about the Zalman ZMHPOPH80blablabla thing. Does it fit? It'd be nice to have to zalman coolers

Radeon 9800/256 MB for Sawtooth?

Hello,
Can anyone verify if [this|http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=270269208676&trksid=p3907.m32&trkparms=tab%3DWatching] Radeon 9800/256 MB Pro is compatible with the Sawtooth? I should say with my Sawtooth for which I do have a 550 watt PSU; I just haven't installed it yet.
The specs for the 9800/256 MB Pro state it is not compatible with 2X AGP; but it has two gaps in the connectors which indicates it would work on the 2X AGP Sawtooth running 10.4.11.
If the 9800/256 MB Pro is compatible, is it really worth getting over the 9800/128 MB Pro (which is compatible with the Sawtooth)? Mostly I use my G4 to do fine art graphics work in Photoshop and Aperture......Although I do appreciate really fine graphics on my display no matter what I am doing.
Also, will the 9800/256 Pro cool efficiently enough with all three PCI slots being utilized?
Thanks!

Hi-
The fan install isn't difficult. The hardest part is getting the OEM fan off. It uses two push pin type fasteners, that are spring loaded.
If you're game to replace a PSU, then you can do this!
Seems I have managed to break at least one pin on the ATI fans on most attempts at removal....
But, then again, no one ever told me how to do it.........
What the ATI heatsink fasteners are, is a hollow retaining stud, with a spring around the stud to maintain downward pressure on the graphics processor chip (maintain good contact). Then, a pin is inserted into the stud to expand the bottom of the stud in the graphics card board.
Carefully push the pin out of the stud from the back side of the board. A blunted off tooth pick can be used for this (blunted to protect you, not the card ) Then using small needle nose pliers, or hemostats, squeeze the protruding portion of the stud so that it slips back through the hole in the graphics board, releasing the heatsink/fan from the board.
If you don't care to salvage the pins, use a small pair of side cutters and clip the stud off from the back side of the card. Definitely not tedious, this method.......
Careful, though, as the spring will launch the other end of the pin to the nether regions of your room!
Once the assembly is off, using a soft cloth, dampened with isoprophyl alcohol (only if necessary) clean the surface of the graphics processor chip off, leaving no residue.
Place a small amount (about 5mm diameter x 1-2mm thick) of the thermal compound on the processor chip, and then test fit the new heatsink (simply place and remove). From the footprint, you will be able to see if you need more compound, or if there is too much. What you want, is an evenly dispersed, thin coat over the entire mating surface.
MX-2 is thick and sticky, so better to have to add than to have to remove.....
Don't worry too much about excess, as MX-2 is non-conductive, and won't cause any shorts like other compounds can. You can remove some excess from the perimeter of the chip and heatsink with a soft clean cloth.
From there, follow the instructions included with the VGA cooler, and everything should be fine.
The Vantec should use screws, so it is easier to assemble/disassemble.
Pay attention to maker instructions on fastening the heatsink. Proper fastening, neither too tight nor too loose is important.
That should about do ya'. Remember, if you get a flashed card, since you are using it in a Sawtooth, the typically taped #3 and #11 pins (on the backside) don't need to be taped, or otherwise altered.

Can I replace an ATI RADEON 9800 PRO-(256MB)-MAC EDITION with Mac ATI Radeon 9800 Pro 128mb Video Card For G4/G5

Hi,
I am trying to help a friend whose graphics card has bust.
The old one was an ATI RADEON 9800 PRO-(256MB)-MAC EDITION.
I've been looking on ebay and it seems a lot cheaper to get a Mac ATI Radeon 9800 Pro 128mb Video Card For G4/G5.
Can I just swap them over? The connectors are not identical according to the photographs.
Thanks.

I'd like to thank everyone for all the really useful information in this thread. It helped me solve a similar problem, which I'll describe here briefly in case it helps someone else.
I have a 2004/5 dual 2 Ghz PowerPC G5 and an Apple Cinema HD display linked, as I later found out, with the now defunct ADC connector. The display suddenly started to look like that scene in The Matrix, when code falls like rain down the screen, and I worked out I needed to replace my Radeon 9800 pro video card (I discovered the board was blue when I removed a thick layer of dust).
I took japamac's excellent advice and bought a Geforce 6800 Ultra from the linked eBay seller in Hong Kong, who delivered it extremely quickly, along with the cables to plug it into the DVD drive power source and a CD with installation instructions. It was only then that I realised the card had two DVI connectors and my display needed ADC (I hadn't understood the difference).
eBay came to the rescue again with a seller who had a secondhand DVI to ADC adapter, which Apple produced when it phased out ADC about six years ago but no longer sells. It has its own power supply and looks like a large version of the Mac laptop power cables - and has added signifcantly to the pile of spaghetti under my desk.
Installing the Geforce 6800 Ultra is fiddly, and a bit scary if you're not used to delving into the insides of a Mac, but the instructions were clear and illustrated with useful photos. The video cable has four connectors. Two fit into the end of the card, the other two (linked in a Y shape) form a bridge between the DVD/superdrive and its power cable. You have to remove the DVD drive, unplug it, and then plug one of the two Y video card connectors into the DVD power cable and the other into the DVD drive itself. Then you replace the DVD drive, plug the two remaining cable connectors to the video card and ease it into the old card's AGP slot.
Finally, with the G5 reassembled, plug the adapter's DVI connection into the back of the card, plug the Cinema Display ADC cable into the adapter block, plug the adapter's USB cable into the G5 (this enables the the USB ports on the back of the display to work), and power up.
At the time of writing, the display has been up and running for a couple of hours and all seems fine.
Thanks again everyone for all your help and advice. If it wasn't for communities like this, it would be virtually impossible to solve problems with old but still serviceable Macs.

I just replaced my old graphics card NVIDIA GeForce2 MX/MX 400 with another old model card, ATI Radeon 9800 XT. Everything was fine until I tried to update a recent ATI driver after uninstalling my old Nvidia driver with DriverCleaner Pro. I get this error message:
"Setup failed to launch installation engine: Class not registered"
Then, tried to install the driver through device manager with the update driver option. I directed to the driver folder on my desktop and the driver update went through, smoothly. However, when I put my computer in standby mode and then restore to full operation
I got a BSOD with this error msg.:
ati2dvag.dll-Address BF039614 base at BF012000, DateStamp 49344e53
Now I can't use standby mode because the computer just shuts down instead of operating in standby.
Is there any idea why my new card is not being fully accepted in my OS and how can I fix this issue. BTW, my ATI card is an 8x speed and my AGP slot supports a max of 4x speed, but I think my card is reverse compatible with 4x slot with the same voltage (1.5V).

Thank you BOSS for your quick response:
I took your advice and reinstalled my OS, but unfortunately stand-by mode is still causing errors. The only difference is that I managed to install the ATI driver normally and no BSOD, so far.
I'm not sure what is causing this, but my humble guess would be that my ATI card is an OEM card which is pulled form a working dell computer and these cards sometimes do not integrate well when installed on non dell motherboards... However, I need to find out that that is absolutely the case before I remove my vid. card from my system
There is a memory dump file that contains the info about this error but I can't decipher...I'm not a computer savvy, but you or someone here my find the root of the problem in that file. If that will be of any help to provide you with I will, next time.
Thanks in advance!!!

Sapphire Radeon 9800 PRO, 256 MB using ZALMAN VGA COOLER ZM80C-HP with

Hi, I need some help...
I own a MSI 875P NEO FIS2R Mainboard and Sapphire Atlantis Radeon 9800 PRO 256 MB VGA card...
Meanwhile Sapphire released the same VGA card just like above mentioned but then equipped it with the ZALMAN Heatpipe VGA Cooler, type ZM80C-HP and called that videocard Sapphire Atlantis Radeon 9800 PRO 256 MB ULTIMATE
I know the same separate ZALMAN VGA Cooler is available in the shops here since a few days and that I can equip my 9800 PRO too with that Cooler but I really don't know if the videocard plus the zalman cooler will fit on my 875P Neo FIS2R mainboard... Cuz of the little space between the AGP slot and the Canterwood Bridge (North Bridge)... ?(
Anyone know if it's possible to do this/how to arrange this??? :(
Thanx in advance... :D

It will fit. But why replace the original heatsink? It works ok without the fan. Take a look here

What is the correct installation sequence for my ATI Radeon 9800 PRO MAC AGP 128MB into my Quicksilver 867 G4?

Hi.
I just got my used ATI Radeon 9800 PRO MAC AGP 128MB card.
What is the correct installation sequence into my Quicksilver 867 G4 running 10.4.11 on one drive 10.5 on another?
The original NVIDIA GeForce2 MX - 32MB SDRAM went bust.
Is the driver build in 10.4?
Do I remove the old driver?
If I need to install the driver that came with it, (10.3.6) should the card be installed first?
What about firmware updates?
Thank you for all your time and patience.
W.W.

I think it's the card, but here are some files that may affect it...

Nvidia GeForce4 Ti 4600 or ATI Radeon 9800 Pro for G4 "Sawtooth"?

Which video card would be the best 2x AGP upgrade for a G4 "Sawtooth" that sometimes uses Photoshop 6 in OS 9 Classic mode, an Nvidia GeForce4 Ti 4600 or an ATI Radeon 9800 Pro (or something else)?
Sincerely,
John

Hi-
Boot to OS 9 and the Geforce is better.
In OS X Classic mode, the 9800 is better.

Which thermal compound for a G4: Arctic Cooling MX-2, MX-3, or MX-4?

Thermal compound was mentioned at the below link:
[http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2613130&tstart=0]
Linked from that page was another web page, where the MX-2 thermal compound made by Arctic Cooling was mentioned. The below web page on the Arctic Cooling website mentions MX-2, as well as newer thermal compounds, MX-3 and MX-4:
[http://www.arctic-cooling.com/catalog/main.php?cPath=39]
Does anyone know which would be most appropriate for a G4 "Sawtooth"? According to the product descriptions, MX-3 is an upgraded version of MX-2.

Hi-
I'm using MX-3 now in all my G4s.
Previously, I used MX-2.
MX-3 is easier to apply, and definitely is more than good enough for any application you may have.
MX-3 outperforms AC Ceramique and requires no curing.
Ceramique receives a "Good" grade, whereas MX-2 (and MX-3 performs better) receives an "Excellent" grade:
