    Those clocks are pretty tame. Wonder what the maximum overclock is on it?

    Makes me glad I bought my SLI 480's. They're still competitive with 580's in SLI, and almost half the price now... Just need to have shares in Powergen to run them

    Seriously which idiot spends £700+ on a GFX card alone. You can build an entire system for less!

    I wouldn't spend more than £200 on any component of my PC. Anything £200+ (especially for a GFX card) the bang per buck falls sharply.

    I have a 5850 running at 1GHz on water and it never gets higher than 38°C.

    Different league of card, I know, but those temperatures still don't really bowl me over, for a single GPU card.

    Re: News - Water comes to GTX 590 courtesy of Point of View & TGT

    well it depends on what setup they have and also that 50C is pretty damn good! Its a dual gpu card and its a fermi card which we all know are much hotter than amd cards so 12C hotter than your single mid/high range card is pretty stellar...
