    Honestly I never had any problems running my ramsink set on the 4870. It didn't get all that much hotter than any other card I've designed them for... not even the VRM section. I have only light airflow in my case.

    I also ran my 4870 for some time using the stock baseplate with the fan off as Gabe has done here and had no problems.

    That said, I'll probably let Gabe take this one because I do better on my other products such as the radgrilles anyways... I've really only continued to make them as a favor to the community; the original 8800GT set I made was never intended for anything other than personal use. They've actually become more of a nuisance than anything for my production shop as they've taken on some very high volume jobs in the last few weeks.

    Either way, I've been too busy playing with my new 65" Mitsubishi DLP TV and PS3 to spend much time on the computer business.
