With 3rd party cooling the 4850/4870 cards will be reaching amazing clocks very soon. 950mhz core is pretty insane...
in short, I cant wait to see whats in store for us within the next two months![]()

When I was fiddling with the BIOS overclocking of my 4870, I had it at 870/4500 on stock cooling, 32ish % fan... it was getting very hot but running stable, I went to reflash to lower clocks to just game with but had a crash from heat after bootup at lower clocks, shut down and of course the rest is history... truncated BIOS = no bootup, until W1zzard came to the rescue. I'm not going to try those clocks again until a software OC utility comes, but once it does I have a feeling 45-50% fan would keep it stable
. I had run it for a good 15 minutes without game issues until it was getting so hot I got worried.
