XFX Radeon HD 7950 Black Edition Overclocked 3GB 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.
With the cooler design the XFX have placed onto their card we can clearly see that this design has worked, running at a cool 35 degrees at idle and 62 degrees under load – this cooling efficiency is showing its powers right here.
