Yeah, but what is the temp under heavy load?
That is the real question, if idle is like 58 degrees Celsius, under a heavy load what can we expect?
B/c I know the VCT is good, but what I don't know is how much better than reference is this particular one w/ the black shroud and the 1gb of vram... |

Ok now that's pretty sweet, not to bad, I wonder how loud though?
What fan speed are you running it at 100%, 75%, 50%, 30%?
I still have a G92 core 8800gts, and it is pretty hot, in my system, Matx [temp build], so I have to run it at 100%, overkill I know but I like to keep it cool.
I used riva tuner to get that fanspeed, I don't remember if gpu-z let's you do that. It's been a while since I've had to check just the core clock/mem speed, or even to confirm what gpu I'm working with. |

It hold me over till the 4870x2 come down in price or the Next Gen, of cards be out. But i have to get it a 7.5 out of 10 right now.
Mainly due to the drivers but guess that ATI,
The IQ is much better then the 8800GTS, i would say. Pretty good for 300 buck upgrade I say. | [B]
What do you mean by IQ? |
