What?!?!? What about the loads, then? Mind posting that as well?
I'm starting to think ATI just massivly over-volted and overclocked the 38 series cards and added a few new things...

hm considering I did get my other card to 45C idle earlier I won't bother messing with this one till theres a solution for it.

Lol.
Thats all I will say.
My 4870s idle at a cool 79C each. Maybe eventually I will go watercooled, but under load they only increase in temp about 2C, so thats fine by me.
Besides, I'd rather spend my money on something else. Like a Samsung 305T.

will the tt dual orb fit? I am considering getting a 4850/70 soon and would like everything done on the card prior to installation.

I hear it won't handle the heat of the 4800's.

. I thought that it would atleast manage the temps better than the stock HSF. I was just planning the one, no CF.

HAXOR! My Powercolor 4870 comes Monday. Thinking I will need to p/u a Thermalright cooler too. I have the plus for my GTS and it never gets above 48 degrees. It's hot enough in my house right now (109 today in glorious Vegas) without adding a real ATI heating element inside my case
