I didn't mean to sound nasty earlier mate, but idle temps are just pointless...

Your loads aren't bad though for a 4870X2...

Oh, and mate, if you hold shift, and then press the 'print screen' key, then open paint and then press ctrl+V it will paste whatever was on your desktop into paint...

Thats how you take screenies!!!

Also, GPUZ is reporting much higher idle temps than the ATI control panel does... 45c idle, not 26c like your first post!!!
