290P/290X running temp comp

[Kaapstad]

The rules are

Three times round the Heaven 4 bench (using the settings in that thread).

Stock clockspeeds on the GPUs (no overclocking or underclocking)

Any type of cooling allowed (providing it can run 24/7 so no LN2) please say which

Undervolting allowed

Custom fan profiles allowed

Screenshots of GPUZ at the end with max core temps and VRM temps displayed.

The object of the exercise is to see how cool the cards can run.

If anyone with any other cards want to have a go please do, all cards NVidia or AMD welcome.

I will run my 290Xs in the morning when I get in from work.

Please don't forget the VRM temps as it could help other people.

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

I am just off to fire up the beast now.

 

[Kaapstad]

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.

Spoiler

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.

 

[Kaapstad]

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

EDIT

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

If people state the above I will.

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

Yes

 

[Kaapstad]

Table updated.

@LtMatt what kind of air cooling are you using, ref or non ref ?

 

[Kaapstad]

Kaap you know im rocking reference cooling.

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

I will put you down as ref air.

It will be nice if we can get a good range of cooling setups which people can use to refer to.

Table updated and listed in order of core temp.

 

[Kaapstad]

One last time as I missed the under volting part



64-58 degrees

And on the table.

 

[Kaapstad]

Marginally better.


GPU1:67C
VRM1:57C
MEM:52C

GPU2:65C
VRM2:54C
MEM:49C

Spoiler

Table updated.

 

[Kaapstad]

74% and 75.8%

Don't know if that's any good what are yours lt and kap ?

Here is mine

Spoiler

 

[Kaapstad]

can any card post? just not enter the comp?

Any cards are welcome

The idea was to see how cool the 290 series can run but having other cards too for comparison is good.

 

[Kaapstad]

msi tf3 non ref cooler 7850 at stock clocks/voltage fan 100%,no vrm temp support

Table updated.

 

[Kaapstad]

that's with the ultra preset,quality ultra/tessellation extreme/8x aa

I guess your using the basic preset?if so ill try again later

7970 stock voltage and accelero extreme cooler,fan 100%

The settings are fine.

Table updated.

 

[Kaapstad]

Are we taking other cards in this now?

All cards are welcome, it is interesting to see how cool cards can run.
