Mining rig?

Ok, I'll be honest and say that there's a Celeron G1610 running that rig, so let's just say that there's a *slight* bottleneck situation going on there

Oh, and I left the window open

Mantle can't save this

Because it's a dedicated mining rig and 7970CF is plenty enough at 1080p

Score was around erm, *cough* 900ish *cough*

lol

I am half tempted to try my 2600k in there, but will only be able to use two cards as the mobo requires an Ivy to use all three slots. Bit of a hassle just to run a few unigine benches though...

Lol 900 points. I will give this a run shortly.

I am just off to fire up the beast now.

LtMatt · 19 Feb 2014 at 08:15

About to do this now. I will have to use HWINFO though as for some reason Gpu-z only displays the vrm temps for one of my cards.

Just done mine with nine copies of GPUZ running, my poor CPU hates multiple copies of it.

The first two are card one, the next two are card two and so on.

Card 1 = Core 42, VRM1 40, VRM2 36
Card 2 = Core 42, VRM1 40, VRM2 35
Card 3 = Core 43, VRM1 41, VRM2 35
Card 4 = Core 44, VRM1 42, VRM2 36

OP thread updated with a table.

If we can get a number of 290Ps and 290Xs using different cooling, it could be useful next time we get a post about cards temps.

Good work Kaap. I think highest temp should be at the top though.

EDIT

Maybe you should state Reference Air, or AIB Air etc?

Uncle Petey · 19 Feb 2014 at 12:55

Kaap, are you running two MO-RA3's on that rig?

Mr. May · 19 Feb 2014 at 13:16

Does the highest temp win ? lol

Uncle Petey · 19 Feb 2014 at 13:27

More importantly, what do we win?

I know you've got plenty of goodies in the kaapcave

Dammit you might beat me, you've got 290X's.
