Sapphire 5770 temps

[factionrider]

Hi, my gpu temps seem really low I'm wondering if they could be wrong. I have a sapphire vapor x 5770 clocked at 960/1400 and furmark only gets it around 65 with the fan set to auto. The fan only spins up to 45-60%. Ambient temps are fairly low about 22-26c

Oh, idle temps are around 33-36

This sounds about right.
Ambient temps make the difference.

Hi newcomer and welcome to the Tom's hardware forum.

What case do you have?

It's a really old full size tower. It's side is open w/ an 80mm fan blowing from the back to the cpu. (open case is king for ambient temps)

WOW

Those Vapor X cards Rock... Nice OC!

You can manage the fan with Rivatuner. I think that the temps are good, the Vapor X have a big fan to freeze the chipset of the GPU.

Yeah I was surprised at the 1400 memory. Soon I'll flash the bios to get above the 960Mhz core cap.
