Holy shit, that's just....  Huh

No software demands that kind of computing power! Not even CRYSIS!

You don't have to push it to get GSoD....but if you should ever get one, then just Underclock it a little. Works for me.

Some or the early hd5000 cards were rumored to have grey (Gsod) screen issues. Ati has released a patch solely for this reason. Never been a problem for me cause i reflash the bios of all my cards anyway.
