    The only issue you might have is cooling, seeing as HellCry needed to mod the heatsink.

    There will be more to follow in HellCry's footsteps soon. Yes, the heatsink must be modded but the temps during his test were quite fine, so the mod was successful, IMHO.

    I'm the man who bought the HellCry comp.
    It's summertime in my town with 34°C outside.

    In a hotter room (aka 32°C), in 1920x1080 in full detail, the 5870m can reach 92°C max during 3h+ of play. 100°C is the max normally
    In a normal summer room (aka 26/27°), max temp is 88°C.

    As comparison, the CPU goes to 70°C in a hotter room (aka 32°C).

    The temp is lower on shader/io/gpu (85-89°C).
