considering it, though i have a 48701gb which is on par, i'm making a second build that will need a temp card till the 7000 series comes out. This might do the trick.
ASUS version is 150 AC/120 AR today, (code: EMCKDKH43). Non-reference cooler and voltage tweaking, but it vents a little weird. I have 2 of these running at 850mhz.
