I think it was at 40-50 mhash/s for the few minutes I ran it.
This config didn't last long b/c I didn't like seeing the 7870's vrms at 67-72c when mining/gaming. Now that I have a much cooler running mobo, I will try it again and this time work an extra 120mm or two into the equation. xD

~70C for VRM temps are actually pretty good! Why would you complain about that?
I'm 'heat o pheobic'. :p
I also like having the peace of mind of knowing that the card is mint, when it come time to sell.
Over time the temp swings of anything over 60c can/will cause significantly more wear on your gear. The industry temp standard is rigged to increase sales. The faster you burn it out..
Once in a while, i always see a noob spilling out myths..... makes me laugh tho
I'll bet you sound like that fat ass comic book guy when you say that.

The known laws of physics and the legions of people who waste their time/money with buying new parts or RMAs because they believe 60c+ is "ok", are NOT myths.
Hey retard, can you prove your myth? lol
Stupid as stupid does.
I will give you a hint: Electromigration
The number of SAD ass noobs that think just because they can get a 3 pin plug into the wall the right way up or get a GPU running over 60 deg. makes them some sort of experts on reliability.
There is NOTHING about the myth of reliability of electronics related to temperature.
Unfortunately the majority of brain dead cretins running electronics are too dumb even to be able to do a bit of research.
FACT....
1. When a device says it has an MTBF of 50,000 hours, it is NOT tested for 50,000 hours, it is accelerated testing which they do by INCREASING the temperature then plotting the failure of a small batches of devices.
BECAUSE there is almost an EXACT correlation between the temperature you run electronics AND its failure rate.
The rule is :
For every 10 degrees OVER 25 degrees , the reliability is HALF!! (yep thats right techno noobs)
WTF do you think the industry specifies ALL its datasheets at a TA=25deg c, it is so they can test at 85deg.c/85% RH and then graph its failure mode.
So almost with a linear line for EVERY 10degc BELOW 25degc you operate, you DOUBLE the reliability of an electronic component.
OH Hi dumbfuck,
Is it also true that if i run my components under phasechange, i can run them until .....eternity?
Btw, everyone knows temperature is correlated to failures rate. Dumbass, please read why i laughed at noobs like you.
Today another noob with no training or background in reliability testing broke wind.
