[testingGuyAlen]

Uhmm, my 4870x2got as high as to 104c? do i have to worry about something?

219.2 ºF is nothing to be worried about... *sarcasm* that's pretty high. the normal boiling point of water is 99.97 degrees Celsius, you can now make soup on your gpu!

dude, you baking some transistors, the reference cooler for the 4870 x2 needs to be cleaned of dust every month, or temperatures such as urs are experienced, but if you want to be on the completely safe side and lower temps by half, get this

keep an eye on temps, if it breaks 100 again, take measures suggested above
