    Hi,

    For all those here who made the big jump ( ;) ), can everyone put their temps (°C please) and setups and/or mods so we can have some kind of comparison within users of performance with this m9750 + HD3870.

    I think SimonMPoulton, Bollards, dondadah88, MR.Moo, EviLCorsaiR, MartynasK, Ichime, Levenly, Mandrake, rsgeiger all still have or HAD this setup... so please be kind enough to share the info with us.

    Any others I forgot (soory :) ) please be welcomed to add your data.

    thanks to all.
