one thing i didnt take into account is 24/7 gpu crunching and ...now like mentioned in my last post above..the 4870x2 hit 90c while gaming..probably while crunching as well...did it die in 6-12 months? im not making a point cause i dont know..just asking out of curiosity...if it did..then id say yea we can assume the 5970 would probably follow suit..however if it didnt...well...same thing itll probably follow suit..but im not sure of this since i dont crunch
