non-watercooled ( stock) fan @50% with 790/1075 overclock I couldnt even run furmark for more then 1 minute without a crash or system restart. So I used ati tool here is my temps before watercool (room was 78F). *NOTE* compare the gpu-z temps too. Who knows which program is right! Also note 0 gpu load on first pick and 82c on VRM with no load. watercooled setup is under 98% load and stable with 790/1075 overclock. But ocing doesnt effect the VRM I get same temps no matter what on the VRM.

Afterwatercool setup and room temp of 80F Furmark stable floating point on VRM 124-126 no crashing.

BTW when I modded the heatsink down I used the thermal putty that was being used for the memory for the VRM chip and the small chip right behind it
