With the G5's .2 gpm you are right, measuring the slightly lower temps wouldn't be easy. Same with the increase if any of the O/C of the GPU with the G5.

But with the .45 or .82gpm flow increse of the other two Little River blocks you'll have less problem measuing it. And while the size of the O/C increase might be hard to see in day to day gaming it wouldn't be hard to see if you bench the cards. Hell that's true of many differant improvements of the past. They are often not really that large taken by themselves, but they add up as further improvements combine with them.

50 watts max, for a highly overclocked card? ? ? Source?
