    Hopefully considering: Radeon 5970 Overclocking: The VRM Temperature Bottleneck

    My XFX HD 5970 arrived today and boy if there ever was a card that begged to be cooled more, this is it.

    Any reasons besides aesthetics for a new backplate? Is it going to resemble 4870X2 backplate's design?

    As promised, here are a couple of pictures of our HD 5970 prototype. It hasn't been nickel plated yet, and the stainless steel cover was temporarily removed to show the guts.

    I think that me and I dare to say that other vendors Representative here better like e-mails as they are easyer to follow up and archive.

    Would you agree Tim, Shoggy, Gabe....?

    Whoops, it's enabled now! Like Eddy, I also find email easier to keep track of. If you send an email through our website, select "Product Question / Comment" in the request. We're training new ppl in the other departments right now and they may be a bit slower to reply.

    The winning factor of the 5970 blocks would be effective VRM cooling...
