Hi folks,
Sorry about my english as usual..
I upgraded my 4870x2 (two cards) in crossfire setup to a 5970 in crossfire (also two cards) and the major blow here is that the fans on both of the Sapphire cards is making a very anoying rattling sound.. The web is full of complaints about the fans on literally ANY vendors 5970 version, I think it has something to do with the reference design (poor fan?)
Just se here, many others having a heck of a time with this anoyance:

So, anyone else experience this? I feel very bad using this amount of money on such a high quality product, having this sound in the background when playing
