Haven't seen the temp difference between a 6950 flashed to 6970 and a stock 6970. Shouldn't be too big.

Whats the reason for having it run at 4GHz 24/7? Why not have the computer automatically downclock when its idling to save power and run cooler?

Not exactly the cream of the crop. These older OCZ PSUs are known to have out-of-spec ripple issues (ripple suppression) so I would advise you to consider a quality replacement.
