    Hope your case is well-ventilated... HD4850s run VERY hot in crossfire...

    That'll definitely help, but make sure you have enough intake directed toward them too. Before I upgraded to my HAF 932 tower I was seeing the primary card hit 100+ celsius (which incidentally was also crashing the card).

    The 4850 is fine on dual slot cooling, just about any dual slot solution has proven a decent option on that card. The original single slot reference cooler was junk though, no doubt about that.
