Hi all.
I am unsure about the results below. I have not changed anything and its "out the box" except turned to its OC mode as advertised of 1216/1317 and adjusting the fan speed. If fans are left on auto the card reaches around the 75c mark but the overall max boost is lower.
In order to keep the card below 70 I need to have the fans turned up to 70% is this right? I thought the cooler on this card was meant to be good. I have a 360 aio taking care of the CPU and this tops out around 40/45 on stock.
I have 3 intake fans and 1 rear although these are not controllable along with the 3 aio fans which are controllable and i have been playing with the speed of these.
Case is h440 tried with and without the front / top though it becomes rather loud with theses off.
Also the card only has a 69.1 asic score is this not a little low for a £650 card? And the memory is a different brand to the Oc3d review whys that? Mine says samsung and the review had hynix. Also how do i set the speed to be default as mine says 1190/1291
What i am concerned about is if im at 70% fan speed already for 70c then really this is not leaving much room for an ovc on top. As i do not want a card running at 80/90% fan speed.
The whole point of buying this card and spending over the odds was for its "good" cooling and out of box speeds with it being classed as a good overclocker too but as yet I have not touched a thing and I am almost running the fans at full speed.
Tested with a game for one hour rather then benchmark
