Meh. ATI cards always get too hot.

Compared to their price and performance competition, they are not.

Also they will be on a mature 40nm process while Nvidia is on 55nm. So they should be cooler than this even.

The last card on that list is enough to sway me away from ATI. I don't need to boil water with my GPU, thanks.

Do you even know what crossfire is? multiple cards. A single card is a lot cooler as you can see. And why do you care so much about heat? ATi cards work fine until 125 degrees, you'd have to try REAL hard to get such a temp.
