I have the BFG overclocked version (625 vs. 600, not a huge leap I admit) and mine runs at 46C at stocktimings, 29% fan speed, stock HSF. Never gets above mid 60s during gaming. Had it up to 80C after about ten minutes of ATI Tool's torture test with fan at 46%, but that was when overclocked to 690 core and 1050 memory (current settings). |
