Thanks

I think that the Furmark can kill ATI cards as they heat up the power regulators or something like thatCare to explain?

A bit of research would have told you that the hot V-REG with furmark is associated with the 4850/4870 cards not the 5000 cards, so the problem is not associated with all ATI cards.
Furmark is completely and 100% useless and serves no purpose, stability in Furmark doesn't prove or disprove your stable speeds in games so simply don't use it.
