GTX480 Vs. HD5870 VaporX
I see... So the high temp should be no issue with a fan cooling, and I suppose it doesn't really matter since they are designed to run at that temp anyways I was just afrad I might have gotten something thats unstable. and also the Driver just needs time to improve I suppose- Houten

And I can see the small slot to align the pin does not extend all the way to the +5V pin, so I...- Houten
