i just had a crash. don't know if it was the 470 or my i5 at 3900 mhz
anyway, thje 470 expells a lot of heat, a lot while gaming, no problem realy,if you wset the fan to a lower setting. I wonder what to do now... Asus Smart doctor doesn't allow much, neither Afterburner...
I do not need any overclock at all, haha, this card rocks. Only major problem is FArcry2, it does not run smooth.
That's odd. While the last time I played the game was over a year ago on one GTX 260, it wasn't very system heavy...
My GTX 480 at stock clocks didn't run too hot with an 80% fan. During the EVGA OC Scanner (runs hotter than MSI Kombustor), max load temp was 82 degrees Celsius. The air coming out of the back is never too hot, but I have an external VGA air duct covering the expansion slots, and a 120mm fan exhausting air.
Since you had a crash, I recommend running LinX for at least 20 passes (I do 30), and then running MSI Kombustor for an hour, with full MSAA and all the nice features enabled.
