What are your GPU temps?

Yep ~__~
At 1200Mhz it's constantly bouncing on the power limit. Pretty naff.

Max temp after ~30minutes full load at 1200/1800 is 69C :)

I think its because they only have +6% power levels, they are quite different to AMD GPU's which stay constant if the temps are in check, Nvidia clocks tend to jump around a lot unless your using a custom BIOS with higher power levels.

Yep it only goes to +106% :( I'm sure my ASUS went higher...
 
Got my EK waterblock coming monday so hopefully within a week my 290X is going be nice and cool.

Just need to find:

RAD
RES/PUMP
FITTINGS
CPU BLOCK

All on a truly low budget lol.
 
Yep, it's a great cooler, no doubt about that, but the plan was to always go watercooled, so instead of spending more money on some decent fans for it, i've decided to sell it and get my loop sorted.
 
25c room temp constantly

Idles @ 31c

Max temps gaming etc 46c

Home made cpu/gpu loop, 120+360 rads (one of those nice roundish tough black pumps (5yrs and counting))

EK block on R9 290x @ 1250/1500
