Default 35C? Thats for real!

I was wondering why my GPU temp went from 58C (ATITool 0.24) to 35C (0.25 Beta 14). Then, all my other temp monitoring systems said the same thing. So, my friend comes over, and see my HSF on my card. I pop open the case and pull it out. Get this... the HSF felt like if it was at room temperature! So I'm happy with so much excitement that now 35C is actually my temp! All I need to do is get ahold of a digital voltmeter and volt modding here I come!

35c idle is pretty good but to be honest a 9800XT is no match for the VF900 I'm not surprised at all, good luck on your overclocking, I hope you do better than I can do with this card (20MHz over stock and I get lock ups).

Yeah... when I get my new computer, I'll sell the 9800XT w/stock cooling. I'll keep the VF900 for whatever card I'll get next. But I still need a digital voltmeter!
