Ahhh! Hole spacing specs! I was just working up a table with those. I may be done but need to sleep on it a bit. Hole spacing is not the issue with the MCW82. In fact it may work directly with the OEM back plate. I just haven't had the chance to examine everything. (Have 2 customers...

This is the modding section of the forum. It is probably my fault for posting in both threads for the M2090. Anyway, I just received the Swiftech MCW82 water block. This one does not have the pedestal section in the middle of the copper plate. That must be the "MCW82-7900". I ordered just the...

Don't worry about fences! I ordered the WC hardware because I am very familiar and comfortable with WC systems. I *know* that the GPU will be cooled. But, there would be minimal air flow across the heat spreader. Of course I have no idea how important that is, but given the crappy OEM TIM...

The OEM heatsink solution is only a problem in a desktop tower. In a rack mount server with slower host CPUs (but more sophisticated motherboards and many more PCIe channels) AND is designed for the Tesla cards, there is no problem. That and given said servers are in A/C server room making fan...

hahaha ... I have thought way too much about doing that. At the end of the day, the ability to pick up the computer to move it around or even outside to blow the dust out says keep them separate. :)

The order is scheduled to arrive 8/14 from performance-pcs. Of course I am scheduled for a trip out of town on 8/15 for a few days.:mad: My bad scheduling, but I will take the time to mock it all up trying general fit & screw sizes & take pics before I leave. I am expecting that I may need to...

I have decided to go with the Swiftech MCW82. All of the after market fan solutions take up 3 slots over all, which cannot do much for the intended air flow. I also decided to make it an independent loop. Therefore the added cost of the pump, Alphacool DC-LT Ceramic + reservoir, and a single...

I am considering this vga cooler. I think it will fit in place of the OEM heat pipe heatsink. I am looking for competitive products. I don't mind water cooling but not sure that the M2090 merits the effort given my experience with the C2070.

I am pretty sure that "90" is 90 deg C which is 194 deg F. The 60 deg C that my C2070 idles at is 140 deg F ... for convenient reference. These cards run very warm. Your ambient is undoubtedly 70 deg F. Squirrel cage fans are hardly worth it. Maybe consider larger fans with reducers like...

Now I remember seeing that also but couldn't find it again when I wanted to confirm. As I understand it (from sources I am not able to relocate), the M2090 does not have a "C" version with fan like the C2070/C2075 because it exceeds PCIe standards for power requirements. Therefore the absence...

Yaaa ... I did squirrel cage fans once upon a time also. Not much air flow. :( Those seem a pretty low. I have one that came in a Lian Li case. It does move air ... but only "ok" Now you are minding me of all of the stuff that I have thrown away. Have you considered sealing up the case...

In the number-crunch software I use, when the GPU is loaded the host CPU cores run about a total of 25%. When the host CPU is loaded which happens when the problem will not fit in the memory of the GPU, the GPU is 0% utilization ... is at idle in other words. Also, in the thread starter post, I...

I thought about adding fans + a shield across the top. I have a Lian Li case with a squirrel cage blower & considered adding one of those to the end ... with a shield across the top. The blower would not have to be inside the case but could be outside pushing air in. Last could be a couple of 60...

I am interested in what you end up with. Pics when you can

"a data hungry family" in Kansas City? Well. Ok. I drove thru the Kansas cities one night & there are a lot of lights for ... 15 minutes.:(

That hybird solution is great idea. It had crossed my mind but I have never looked at after market cooling for anything other than a CPU. In fact the heat pipe is only for the GPU in the OEM design. There is a cutout in the heat spreader for the GPU that covers all the other devices. So, I...

The comments are pretty funny

I finally removed the heatsink from a Nvidia Tesla M2090. This GPGPU has 512 processors versus the C2075 that has 448. Unfortunately the M2090 does not have active cooling as it is intended for server in a rack. Apparently Rack mounted servers for high performance computing have air flow that...

The only threats found were the 2 on wife's office machine via malwarebytes. This is after a full run with spybot. I did not try adaware. Since then (knock on wood) there have been no problems with WiFi on the router. I have never heard of a connection as this, but the potential cause and...

Don't you wonder where the H everyone is?!?!? Ok, it is summer. But what can people be thinking and seemingly dis their tech sites?:confused::mad:You could almost think that they were on vacation + getting paid to drop off the grid! For those of us that do not have a real life, I am very...
