How hot does a Radeon X1900XT run?

[LW07]

And which of these 3 cases will give me the best airflow?

I like the P180..

As far the x1900xt(x) mine runs in to the low to mid 80's under load.. The metal mounting bracket on the back of the card gets very WARM.

Card runs like hell, and runs all day long as well!

do you have a P180? And will the high temperatures destroy the X1900? Have you experienced any problems with your X1900 at those temperatures? And is 80-90 degrees celcius lethal for a X1900 card?

So if I get an X1900XT or an XTX, would I have any problems and should I worry about it dying on me due to the 80-90C heat?
