Afternoon Kaaps, my Heaven BMRK 4.0 results after 3 runs 4820k:4.6GHz-1.34v SLI 670 Stock > GPU1:1058/3004 / GPU:1084/3004 - Room Temp 21'c.

I don't think Vrm temps is supported with 670's > GPU MAX TEMP:37'C / CPU Core Temps:42'c 35'c 42'c 42'c

Note duting the 3 runs my SLI670's Core Temps fluctuated between 34'c to 37'c.

Custom loop -
PhoBya Rad 560+EK DCP 4.0 Pump (12v) with 4xZaward Golf II Fan 140mm 900rpm ZG2-140D - black
Watercool Heatkiller CPU Block Rev3.0 1366 / 2011 - Black Nickel
EK Water Blocks FC670 GTX GPU Water Block - Acetal+Nickelx2

Note Rad is free standing for better temps, easier maintenance and fitting.

Cheers,
Oldphart.

I also know you are an ace modder, I was not sure if you have enhanced the cooling.:D:)

I will put you down as ref air.:)

Hehe true. I do have a pair of Accelero's that i could put on my cards but when i tried it on my 7950's the cards had no room to breath and (due to using 3 slots each) i got really bad temps so no chance of it working on these.

Just gave this a go 3x benchmark runs on ultra 8x AA tess maxed cards at stock using my fan profile



80-77 on refrence cooling sandwiched together in a micro atx with 2 ssds 2 hdds and a 3930k lol



Only just noticed LT matt's is using 100% fan time for a rerun lol :D

LOL. Damn straight i am Mr May. It was like being at Heathrow. I should run it again to be fair. I did feel like i was cheating with that run. What fan speed were you using? I normally run about 55-60% fan speed. Your temps are really good i have to say. Its a testament to the design of the reference cooler that you can run like that with a lower fan profile and still keep decent temps.

One last time as I missed the under volting part :o



64-58 degrees

Wow you actually got lower temps than mine and you have a 290X vs my 290 Pro's. I'm amazed. :eek:

EDIT

What are the Asics of your cards Mr May?

blower cards do quite well when up and down like his pic

One difference i did notice actually. His VDDC in Gpu-z is a constant 1.000v where as mine fluctuates around 1.125v. That could explain the difference, other than that no idea. I wonder if hes using force constant voltage in afterburner?
