The cyclones are still really good at £180, just £10 more for the awesome cooler and military class stuff (same as on gigabyte + asus with a different name, no whine noise unlike Palit )

I need better cooling on my VRMs to hit 900 too. I were strongly disadvising people not to get the standard Palit version, and some lucky guy went and got one still, and it hit 900 Mhz with no artifacts right away

The amount of luck needed on these GTX 460s for good OCs is immense.
Ditto. With 1.1v my card does 880 core absolutely fine, but it won't really scale above that due to VRM heat which is insane. I happen to catch the back of the card with my finger while it was loaded when I was plugging a fan in, boy did it burn. Even with a HS I would guess those VRMs are hitting 80c. I don't want to think about how hot the VRMs on those Palits are getting
