Isn't Colin McRae the game where they were reporting abysmal framerates using the 2900XT? Cause those look pretty solid to me.

You can also use the OEM heat sink plate that comes with the video card.



Front of HD 2900 XT with the Maze4


Back of the HD 2900 XT with the Maze4


Load temps at 30C Ambient is only 48C (from AMDGPU)
3DMark06 @ 858/900 11838 (only 14 more then with OEM HS. If that means anything)
