The VRMs don't pop. The card simply crashes and goes into a protection mode, because furmark (or was it OCCT?) was causing the OCP to kick in. Still a design flaw, but it only affected benchers and people running stresstests. Wasn't causing any problems for real games. Still a serious and bad problem though

I haven't heard of any cards hitting 120C though
