Hi Guys

It gives me great pleasure to announce a result of in house testing, This card is perfect for anyone looking for a silent build.

Totally passive performance from an overclocked card using our favourite after market VGA cooler, the Alpenföhn Peter 2.

This card configuration has been tested in confined cases in a hot room and temperatures have not breached 65C.

Excellent result from a capable and affordable solution.

This of course is built to order in house here at OcUK.

Pretty good temp and will run all day every day at 65C but there is no way to know the VRM or Vram temps on this series.

The VRM would be the one I would be more concerned with.
 
we have had it monitored using temp sensors. they dont really get hot enough to be worried.

we wouldn't warranty it if it didnt work :)
 
Doesn't the Powercolor R9 270 SCS3 totally outstrip this in performance though?

in theory the 270 has about 10% more performance yes, but ive seen plenty of people say that temps easily get to throttling levels on the passive 270's in mitx cases, which isnt surprising given its 150W TDP, this i would hope fares better as its only 60W TDP
 
The 750TI has such a small fan though and it runs so cool anyway, it seems hard to believe it would be noisy at all. It just seems bizarre to me when you now look at the price of it. Each to their own though as always.
 
No offence intended when i say this, but ill be amazed if anyone buys this.

Plenty of people will. When you become secluded into the mess that is the high end GPU market you forget that most people probably are thinking the exact same thing about high end graphics cards. A completely silent discrete GPU is very appealing to a lot of folks.

Exactly when I see people with £300+ gpus I automatically assume there is something wrong with them...

Heh, didn't see that - 150W TDP on a passive cooler?

So basically, you lose your silence by having to bung the case full of delta fans. :D

thats what i would assume yeah, either that or have it running at half clock speed due to mega throttling :)
 
Hi, the card it is about is the FTW version, this do have an extra 6 pin connector compared to the ref 750TI and have a "TDP" of 97W The FTW card can because of this also reach much higher clocks then ref versions.
