Yesterday, with severe weather all around me, angry suggested that I talked to his dad. He said that his dad knows alot about computers.
It took awhile (and constantly watching the radar of this storm heading towards me) to type what I wanted to say to him. When the bad weather cleared, I continued typing, asking him if this 9800GT would overheat more.
Today, I got a reply from him around 7PM in the evening. Hesitant to read it, I very slowly scrolled up, reading what he said. I didn’t know what he would say.
Now I know what he said, he pretty much answered my question.
He said I need to have a 1/4 clearance between the two cards for the GPU to breath correctly. And also, a GPU doesn’t blow air out, and blows it in, and exhausts it though a vent, or something.
I didn’t know either of these things.
He also said that I wouldn’t need to get a new PSU, saying my no-named 500W is powerful enough for the 9800GT. Nor would I need a new case.
This means…. this means if my lock up issue is indeed in my video card. I WILL FINALLY KILL IT IN JULY!! 😀
However, he wants to know the while story — the steps I took to attempt to fix this little fucker. And he will know them.

Other news, I came back to Facepunch after dinner, and decided to check out the Event Log. I noticed a few permabans going on by cosmicduck, giving a strange reason. Banning them all with “So what’s the craziest thing you’ve done lately?”
I scrolled down the list and found he’s been busy on a mass banning spree. But the kicker is, he permabanned himself.
Here’s a link of all the people (and mods) he permabanned;

Later on it was said that someone hacked his account, and he was demoted by garry for some strange reason. Probably something that he did when I was playing my games.
