MSI Twin Frozr 7950 at 1.188 volts?

Mr_Venbeer · Dec 18, 2014

Hi,
When I play games my GPU runs at 1.188 volts (which is what I have my north bridge voltage manually set to). On idle, it runs at 0.95 volts. I'm running this card on stock and I have never touched the voltages. Is this normal?
Is this the reason why I get such high temperatures? In BF4 I get about 68-71 C on 85% fan speed.
Any thoughts?

Your GPU voltage and motherboard/CPU voltages are in no way related. On the other hand, those aren't exactly high temperatures for a 7900 series AMD card, especially in a very demanding game like BF4. However, that also depends on your ambient temperature and your case airflow.

But is my GPU voltage fine? Shouldn't it be 0.950v at all times?
Also I am soon to buy a new fan to put on the side panel of my case, to cool direct air into the graphics card.

No, GPU voltage is dynamic (just like CPU voltage) depending on the load.

Okay so I shouldn't be worrying about it, thanks
