@Har and Shaggy

Please try playing same(game,settings,gameplay time) with 900p resolution and confirm whether it throttles or not!!:)

I already said that I'm playing Max Payne 3 with high and ultra settings at 1600x900. Its not throttling.
All you need is better ventilation and, in some cases, a cooler.

Yes played Crysis Warhead at 1600x900. Noticed the obvious change in FPS. But was very playable. Another change : the temps reached 90* mark very fast but stayed at 98* for almost 45 mins. No throttling.
@rider : I have tried uploading pics in this forum from the very first day. Something's wrong with my browser or this forum.
:(
I will upload pics in some other site and post links here in the future.

My GPU stays at 80*. But 1600x900 resolutions flame up CPU temps. But as long as there's no throttling, I'm fine.

Played Crysis Warhead for about an hour, max temp was 95*, resolution was 1366x768, fps was very good, all settings were ultra(Enthusiast).
The thing that I want to say?
NO THROTTLING

My GPU starts throttling at 91 C only...should i contact customer care??? Please help people !! :-(:-(

shaggy but i guess crysis warhead is a resource hungry game..thats why temps have crossed 90c mark :-? how much average fps you got in ultra settings?

that pic is not of the Y580 but the Y570....sorry to disappoint....but look at the edge of the screen and you can see that it is orange.....the 580 does not come in orange, as far as I know.....

p.s.

does anybody have any idea about the 580 official arrival in India.

Buddy,it's the Y580,look at the extreme left-bottom of the screen,it's Y580.
Plus you can also see the JBL speakers.

Is there much difference between the 1366x768 and 1600x900 resolutions in games? more items appear on screen? 1366x768 seems good enough...:-D:-D...so unofficially the throttling issues have been solved...:mrgreen::mrgreen:

Ya...they are solved...kind of :)
But maybe after a proper driver update you'll be able to game on 900p without any issues!!! :-D
