Baking your 8800gtx main board

Sometimes, yes, but that is not all that bad. It isn't anything we haven't seen before, although it is a single card.

But I suppose that is my opinion.

It's just realy bad when you see 5870 vs 480 power effeciancy, that's what turned me off Fermi.

Eh I could care less at this point, these things are getting hotter and more power consuming each time. Every process node there is a drop, and then their is a new bar set by the next revision on that node. With PSUs being so cheap and the difference amounting to only a few dollars on the electric bill, I will look the other way as long as the TPD is <300w.
