hey all,
so i've just isntalled an aftermarket cooler (the scythe setsugen) on my 5870. not entirely sure about the temps under load.
you can see the screenie of the first minutes of the stress test, before and after the OC. the GPU temp seems fine (very good actually) but the VRMs concern me.
now i know they get hotter than the other parts, but are these gonna cause long term issues?
my own research seems to indicate that below 100c is fine. can anyone say for sure?
