VTX3D Radeon HD 6850 X-Edition 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.

Temperatures were reasonably low, and the large fan and plastic cover provides good airflow across the card, even at load.
