you know if u still have the stock heatsink, u could put some artic silver on it, and RMA it to ATI, worked for me! 8). make sure u use a silver thermal compound cas ati ships videocards with silver compound. if u get the BFG6800 its gonna be loud for sure, due to the single slot solution. personall...

yes front fans are pretty much pointless unless ur running at really cfm. im running a ss tornado 400 at 800 rpm idle, 120mm nexus at 1000rpm, and a arctic silencer NV5, my case has an additional 120 in the front, but its pointless since the cfm being moved out is greater than the intake. unless u e...
