Yeah, my Sapphire 7950OC idled in the teens, and barely went above 45 in games...

Single Center Fan and blower units just dont cut it anymore. GPUs generate twice the heat of a CPU when in use nowadays..... and yet they are held to dual, with a max 3 slot cooling solution.

The 140 should disperse quite a bit of heat before it gets dumped into my cpu, right?
yea it would i had similar loop and it worked well, you will def notice a difference in temps with that loop order thumb.gif

Hey - I am sure I could probably find this out if I trolled through the 1000+ pages of this thread, but I was hoping someone could quickly let me know the max safe temp for the 7970? I was hitting high 70's playing BF3 with fans on auto not even going past 50% usage. When I manually cranked the fan up to 100% it would keep it in the 50's

i forgot which topic it was on, but the absolute maximum is 130c before it becomes permanent damage

so even if your GPU temp goes up to 120c you are still in the safe zone

although your VRM might probably erroring out with artifacts already

Thanks for the quick reply.

Haven't had any errors or artifacting yet - I was only playing for about an hour or so to test a slight bump in OC

VRM's can go upto 120c, but you are NOT SAFE, you are in the fried my gpu zone! Also iirc, shutdown is somewhere around 110c.

Finally switched my 570 Gainward phantom with an Asus 7970 . Didnt feel like changing cards until recently since that 570 GTX was going strong.

I read 7970 Stock volts is 1.17 but mine shows up 1.12 on Msi afterburner. Started Ocing this afternoon and got 1125 core + 1650mhz memory on stock volts !! the memory OC potential on this card is crazy . I didnt try to push over 1650 memory on stock volts. might try for higher tonight !
