MSI Radeon HD 7790 OC Edition 1GB Graphics Card Review

Measuring temperatures is all about being consistent 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.
In a last battle and one that I had to check and check again to ensure the figures were right, the cooler that MSI have used has performed far better than I imagined, given its slim build. Dropping right down to 25C, MSI have managed to fit a cooler that can run a card at near room temperature when idle.
