How could I forget
I don't ever remember telling you back when you were Dragunov that my name was Jason? But you probably saw people on here call me Jason anyway.

Oh,i see.
I never liked the stock cooler on my XFX 6950,It was loud...ran hot,Then died.
That's not good. The stock cooler on my 5870 seems fine though. Runs at about 30C at idle, not too loud at all and hasn't fallen apart yet!
It is not well designed at all. The steel it is made from is half decent, but weak (could be at least 1/4" thicker to be decent strength). The spacing between the mobo tray and the back panel is just a joke. Quite literally 1" or less. The fact that they (CM engineers) had the stupid idea to rivet the DVD drive cage to the plate, so you can't move the plate without also moving the 5.25" cage, and thus a complete lack of space, and lack of ability due to the front panel. Removing the 5.25" cage would work, and allow the mobo tray to be moved, and give you more space, but it would also require the modification of the PCI brackets (as the mobo moves out, the brackets also need to move, or your GPU/RAID card/Sound card/whatever else will move with it, and thus necessitate the moving of the bracket.Can't a very good case. It's all very well people seeing the 912 has cable management holes and then they scream "OH MY GOD IT'S AWESOME FOR CABLE MANAGEMENT!", but what good are those holes if you can't even put the cables through them without being able to get the side panel back on?
chances are if it was running hot enough to kill it, that there was a problem with your card itself, not the cooler.Oh,i see.

They are not loud at all. Really, I have yet to have a loud fan. Well, that is, with GPU fans at 25-30% (lowest they go), The GPU is always louder than the 120's I run (CoolerMaster R4-S2S-124K-GP and Corsair SP120 High Static Pressure). Keep in mind none of these are PWM capable, meaning that they are running at full all the time.
