People are still having problem with stuttering/flickering in the game. My sc2 was flickering and down clocks to 405 in game. New driver fixed flickering but still downclocks to 405Mhz in game. 90 fps to 40 fps drop ..... I regret selling my 5850.

Custom Cooler for GTX 470?

I couldnt find one myself so I did fan mod. Take off casing and attach 80mm fan to heatsink using ziptie. dropped my temp to 50idle 65 load. Was at 70idle/94load. No more loud noise. Cheap $3 mod that works. But you'll need 3 slots.
