Gigabyte GTX 680 Super Over Clock 2GB Graphics Card Review

Measuring temperatures is all about being consitent, therefore we keep a steady eye on monitoring the ambient room temperature to make sure that it stays the same. While this is constantly being monitored, we measure the idle temperature of the card using HWMonitor over a 15 minute period. Once this has been recorded, we set FurMark into motion for 15 minutes and record the results again.
The other talked about area of the SOC is naturally with regards to the temperatures, as we would expect with the huge heatsink, the card is very capable of running at very reasonable temperatures even under full load topping out at 68 degrees.
