ATI 9800XT

[ATI_Mercenary]

So I was looking at the hardware guide and Noticed the New ATI 9800 XT, Well I just bought a new comp and wanted the best Card, so i got this one since it was the best at the time, Which was like 2 weeks ago lol, And It said the cooling thing was like of poor craftsman ship. And said it got very hot during tests 60c(is that very hot?) like I dont know how hot a video card is supposed to get, but Like Should I be worried about my card overheating, or is that like not too hot? Like Im worried about my card overheating, Like What do yall think. they said the 9800 pro had a poor heating design, did anyone that had a 9800 pro have problems with heat?

I just want to know if I should worry about the heat situation with my 9800 XT Since it has "poor craftsmanship" check out their review of it and see what yall think and if anyone's had any problems with heating on their XT or 9800 pro tell me

Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice.
From what I've tasted of desire
I hold with those who favor fire.
But if it had to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate
To say that for destruction ice
Is also great
And would suffice.

Where the hell did you read the hardware review? ATI has very efficient cooling designs, effective, quite, and light. I don't understand poor craftsmanship, 60C why the hell would you be worried, 90C is what you have to keep that ATI card under. They don't melt 'til about 130C.
