Also Hardware Canucks review is up they tested the 4870 with an HR-03 GT and saw near a 40c drop in load temps :thumbsup:
Holy crap, that is a ridiculous drop in temperatures. Either the Thermalright HR-03 GT is just that great of a GPU cooler or the standard heatsink/fan on the 4870 is just that horrible. Going from 82C to 43C at load and 55C to 33C at idle, just from an after market cooler is crazy! I was hoping to see some overclocking scores after they mounted the Thermalright on it, but nope
