Hey, I undervolted my CPUs in the past to limit consumption. And I know a lot more people doing so.

Was even worse with the 580. Remember all those Fermi Thermi jokes? Good times...

Spoiler!
For those who missed those times, AMD wasn't much more efficient with their 6970 vs the 580 - but the 580 generally hit 90ºC while it's Radeon counterpart stayed below 80ºC. Did I mention that the 6970 was sold at $250 while the Thermi was almost $400?

Oh, yes. And the 580 was a big improvement over the awful GTX 480, with some even posting pics of their smoking cards.

Lol I actually meant the 480 in the first place, didn't check what I was typing...
