how exactly does hotter = fail? the i7 920 is "hotter" than a q9650, does it then have higher failure rates? also, please enlighten all of us on what exactly the power consuption and thermals for the gtx4xx cards will be.
As long we keep getting crap ports (again for gaming), yes, I had 285's on 3-way and temps were awful in gaming session's I had to put it at 100% to have <85, I sold it and got myself an 5870 which is enough for anything right now even for eyefinity and for power consumption is probably is not going to be less than ATi 5000 thats for sure everyone knows that already I guess...
