Hi, I have recently buy a Sapphire HD 4870 1gb Vapor-X card, but when i gaming for about 20 minutes tha fan go all the way up, and started to make a lot of noise, i was analyzing the problem and my conclusion was that because in my case at the level of the card i have a 120 mm fan that intakes air to the case, but looking in the page of sapphire a found a picture that show that this card throw the air from where i have this fan, my question is.. do this fan its affecting my card? because the noise really is too strong, and for what i know this card is too silent, did you recommend to change this fan to an out take aire? or this card with the fan at 100% normally makes a lot of noise? hope you can help me, thanks!
