i need help with rmaing ive tried before but rma with asus is a pain in the arse
Asus 7950 DCII owners! Do i get a new cooler?
- Thread starter ZZAC
- Start date
RMA it for a VII, it has a massive desing flaw, in gaming it gets to over 115 degrease on the back of the pcb without a problem, if you dont send it back it will fail, ive seen more and more being sold on ebay as faulty. if a card isnt cooled, solder melts and you need a new card. you dont want that to happen a month out of warrenty, or ever.

Just wanted to add some info for you.
Concerning plugging in another fan/heatsink assembly its not possible because on the dc2t the fan header is a 5pin one not a 3/4 as usually seen on other graphic cards.
I'm also aware that bios flashing is easy and since its a double bios card i can allways get it back to original state. But each bios has a different function regarding the video outputs(enables/disables DP, switches between DVI D single/dual link), so if not flashed on the right location (switch on 1 or 2) i might end up with some outpouts not working any more. TBH i dont know if there are actually 2 different bios on the card or if the switch is just for the video output switching on a physical level. (Eyefinity6).
And also i'm aware that with no serial number they cant relate the card to its box or buyer. The sticker peeled of and i just threw it away, stupid idea but thats a lesson for the future.
Here is a picture of what happens when swithing between position 1 an 2:

So i tok aparty my 7950 VII
Heres the naked PCB- same pcb as the 7970 DCII with a couple small changes
the moister on the pcb is rubbing alcohol, the pcb was sticky for some reason.
Nice thermal paste asus
Vram cooling, big improvement already
surprised at how big my actual pcb is
a fair few screws that attach to the heat sink and stability brackets
Cooler shot- not my image because i forgot to snap a full shot of the cooler up
but yeah, its a far better card and based around a voltage unlocked 7970DCII pcb, unfortunatley i can only get 1100 extreme burn stable, they cherry picked me a bad clocker i bet
