Sapphire makes all blue pcbs but I still don't understand why they make heatsinks that pump hot air right onto your RAM. Are there blue pcbs with normal cooling?

vapor X has open heatsinks. i would like a closed one for my case, but i dont know any other blue pcb radeons...
why not paint the back plate, the pcb is black so if u had the normal black card then got a nice blue for the backplate it would look nice

Is your case realy that awful, that a vcard would cause your system to overheat and reboot?

the whole point of airflow design is to pump hot air out of your case. im sure my machine would run fine but it would be a little hotter, and it really is annoying that sapphire is the only manufacturer that makes super high-end cards with these terrible heatsink designs, since their cards are really good
WOW, what is terrible about vapor X? it is the best cooler out there.

that kind of sink is good for the gpu, its the best kind for the gpu (not that one but that style) its got the most air and its the quietest. the drawback is that it will heat up the surrounding air and depending on your case its not always bad.
what about painting the backplate

In my case a Vapor X will dump more air in my Case though I have a coolmaster Full tower.
