I am not happy with the way this card heats up my case to 80c without being overclocked. It made my fans jack up to 100 and sounded like an airport. So I invested in the Sapphire Dual-X Radeon HD 7950 3gb card because the reviews say it has better cooling and obviously a much better card. Does anyone have any thoughts or suggestions for me in that regard? I am very new to this world and this PC is my first build.
Specs:
AMD FX-6300 6 core processor 3.5 ghZ(stock fan)
Corsair Vengeance 8gb DDR3 Ram at 1866
KenTek 950w power supply
Raidmax Cobra ATX mid-size case
super multi SATA DVD optical drive
Toshiba 1TB SATA hard drive at 7200 rpm
MSI 970-G43 mobo(PCIe 2.0 x 16)
and currently using my old card because i took out the 6950, which is a brand new MSI Radeon HD 7770 1GB GDDR5 (PCIe 3.0 x 16)
