That'll be with the reference cards, which are really built for single card configs and not the heat furnace that is SLi/Crossfire

na you didn't see the fan profiles both were set about 49%.....if they'd been set to 60% they would have been cooler a lot cooler......
Should we start printing Million quid notes?

It looks more like the fan speeds were about 60% at the time the temps were that high. Look at the graph. The temp is showing the max value while the fan speed is showing the current value at the time of taking the screenshot.
Something is a bit off with those benchmarks though, the firestrike ultra score of 10617 (gfx) is significantly (about 1000 points) higher than a 1070?!?
*edit* Derp moment. Didn't notice it was crossfire!

No just 1 Doubloon
Negative; max is for temp range
and range for temp was set for 90 degrees max and 80 min.....look at the yellow.....fans weren't set very high........thus if they'd turned up the fans and brought down temp max we'd see better temps - but more noise...
along with gpu-z reporting first card fan speed was 49% and second card fan speed was 44%

And 49% = nearly 1900 rpm - seems high?
the 49 and 44 are the current speeds at the end of the run. At max temp the fans were higher.Negative; max is for temp range

honestly we don't know - its possible - they could have gotten higher - but way things seem to be playing out fans weren't really pushed to keep the temps down when they could have.......more of just to see where the thermal limit was.

*edit* nevermind. Chap a few posts up put it in a much more eloquent and less rambling way than me!

Lets remember the reference models heat-sink size/design with single blower is rather basic too.
So if this is running at 1288Mhz what is the potential of the rumoured 1500Mhz someone said Sapphire confirmed? While yet of course, more rumours still interesting to see what the best AIB designs achieve with much greater cooling and at least dual fans!
Stay hopeful but realistic...
ah ok
true - what actual temps hit as said was hit we don't know - but still looks fairly solid at fan speeds keep things within the temp range set......max was set to 90 and min was 80
