Im going to buy a computer in about 30-40 days from AVA. I dont know much about computer stuff so here is my question. Will the heat issue with the 4850 cards be resolved soon? I dont have the no-how to replace the cooling fan on a card. thankyou
 
Its already fixed, sort of. You can manually edit a file (extremely easy to do) and increase the fan speed. I did this to mine and it took nearly 30C off my temps and the card sounds nearly identical to before.

I'm sure it won't be long until its officially fixed, but until then this works.
