The R350 puts out 70 Watts of heat???
They may go to watercooling???
Holy cow!!!

I think that ATI will not go with water cooling, but may use heatpipe technology as they have already done on one version of the 9700 Pro. Also, I think that both ATI and NVidia need to back off a bit. It seems that both the FX and R350 will be taking up at least 1 PCI slot for simple cooling. If NVidia needs that with the FX on a 130 nm chip, what do you think ATI will need on its 150 nm R350?
