MSI Radeon HD 7950 Twin Frozr III 3GB Graphics Card Review
Andy Ruffell / 13 years ago
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.
Temperatures is an area where this card really stuck out from the crowd. The idle temperature at 36 degrees is certainly respectable, but with a load result of 61 degrees, it’s sits a lot cooler than the reference 7950 from AMD and even sits below the Sapphire 7950 OC, among other cards with less power also.
