Galaxy GT430 1GB Video Card Thermal Image Analysis

If there was one suggestion I might make in order to improve the life expectancy and reliability of the Galaxy GT430 1GB video card, it would be to address the two hot transistors found between the GPU cooler and the connectors on the back of the card. The GPU cooler slightly overhangs this area, but some low profile chipsinks could fit on to either.

I was looking at infrared/thermal imaging cameras just a few days ago... still too pricey for the limited use I was intending. Anyway, I enjoyed the review. Definitely a unique was to review a product and is one of those things that makes BigBruin stand out.

If you know any fire fighters they may be able to help out, they carry the TICs on the Apparatus.

Down side the'll likey have only the black and white screens unless they have a newer model.

Still it looks cool though seeing where the hot spots are.
