" The cooling performance of the IceQ 4+ is quite impressive. General range of reference HD 4870 products are around 90c. The HIS HD 4870 IceQ 4+ Turbo runs at a much cooler 81c under full load. Average temperature moving from games to Windows and so forth kept the card at a constant 57c to 62c under real-world conditions......Clearly, the HIS HD 4870 IceQ 4+ Turbo is a big step up from the NVIDIA 8800 GTX " - Viperlair Editor's Choice
