Ti4200 owners

I have MSI Ti4200 128mb DDR with 8x AGP. I've searched around and found so many different answers for many different Ti4200 boards. Therefore I decide to make up this list to see if we could come up with a universal way.

Thanks everyone


What brand do you have?
What do you do to cool your card?
what specs you're running?
What is your Benchmark score? (3dmark 2001 or 3dmark2003)
What do you recommend to use for the maximum AIR cooling, ie ramsinks, etc? Please be detail as much as possible.


Thanks again.

i have a 4600Ti but most of my information will still be helpfull i hope

Brand - Creative

Cooling - Stock (with some AS5)

Specs - Sig

Maximum - As high as you can get the card and maintaining stablity.

Mine is in my sig, and the only extra air it gets is a fan on the case that points right at the agp slot (on the side of the case, 2 fans, one for PCI, one for AGP), and when I crank those, the temp goes down quite a bit.. My card starts acting up at about 300mhz OC with moderate memory OC, but is much worse when trying to OC memory, it doesn't like going over 5-8% there, or it starts skipping in gaming, but no crash.

It's so weird, when my system was bone stock @2.66ghz p4, 512 ddr333, and my Ti4200 was at its stock speed of 250/513, I got 12254 with 3dmark 2001.

Now, a year later, I got only 11100 running at 2.9 ghz, 1gb ddr333, and 300/600 for my ti4200 (my first try). I also added a whole bunch of fans and my both my cpu and case temperatures dropped like 10 degree Celcius each. I haven't been reformat my comp ever though. I think that's why it's a lot slower than when I first got it. My 120gb hdd only has about 35gb free now. I also have a lot of resources running and stuff installed like tons of codecs, etc. I should try to reformat sometimes soon when I get a new HDD to store stuff in. What else could be the reason why it's slow down?


Also, I found a small old heatsink of a k7 cpu with its 40mm fan. What can I do to make it stick to the upper copper part of my Ti4200 so it'll help cool it down a bit? The botton already comes with the cooling of its own. Also, I notice that 2 copper plates on both sides of the ti4200 are not touch the mem chips. What can I do to make it stick closer so that it'll cool better?


thanks everyone.
