Guess ill just send it back, i dunno im pretty tired with ati wich sucks cuz i thought this was gonna be a really nice card. Thinkin about gettin an 8800 gtx?
70c is too high for me. my 9800gtx never breaks 60c while playing crysis. i would try to rma it. and get a GTX 260, less driver and over all problems with those.
i had a x1900xtx never overclocked it and when i would go to take it out of my case or something touching it would almost burn my hands. probly explains why it was a piece of CRAP. shouls have got a 7800gtx
ya i loved my 4850's... until i figured out it was the cause of my romo always being INCREDIBLY HOT... crossfired 4850's = 5c temp raise in the room!!! SUCKED
the heat was about the only good thing about it (warmed my room in cold winter months) . most of the time i'de get a blue screen or it would freeze. but when it didn't lock up i was getting stellar frame rates.
