ouch, never through cards could hate the cold (to a certain temperature anyway) isnt it not actually the chip but the caps and chips around the man gpu that dont like cold? (i might just have read something and got the wrong end of the stick though) if so more insulation?

 

[fatty]

Well played around with it all night and no go now I have refitted the stock cooloing and no go noooooooooooo not another gcard loooooool oh well looks like I will be after a new gcard now

Sorry to hear about the card Fatty, I thought X850XT's were alright with subzero temps? or was it condensation that killed it?

 

[fatty]

Think it was condensation or I could have damaged the core nooooooooooo

So unless some one wants a cheapish duel unit this will be modded back to a chilly1 to pay for my new kit incase I cant rma it

 

[fatty]

Couple of pics fitted and yes my case is a mess looool

 

[ZaX]

Did you have any neoprene on the back of the card?

 

[fatty]

Yes mate just not enough dielectic grease none on the back of the pci slot
