 |  Overclocked HD 2900 XT too hot for LN2 cooling The fact is that we are looking at a 80nm graphics core that leaks power like no other but despite this it has no problems reaching higher frequencies with the right cooling. At 1211MHz which is the highest frequency we have proof of, the Radeon HD 2900XT performs an unbelievable 777GFlops (470GFlops at standard frequencies) which could be compared to around 40-50GFlops on todays quad-core CPUs. http://www.nordichardware.com/news,6331.html

| It's a 80nm chip of never before seen proportions and they pump 1.53v into it and run it 61% above standard clocks, what do they expect. Of course it will run extra crispy.  |
