4870x2HD
So I Updated my driver from 10.8 to 10.9 and noticed it ran ALOT hotter. When I running a game it would go over 108celcius at 100% fan speed and start to artifact, So I undervolted it and dropped both clocks by 20-30 mhz this made it around 95-99 under heavy load.
I lapped the gpu's sink and replaced the thermal pads with thermal paste and had it down to 80celcius under load.
I've now updated to 10.10 and find the temperature is even HIGHER, not having been underload yet it went up 8 celcius at idle. 100% fanspeed at 78-79 celcius
Has anyone else experienced this? or have any insight/advice?
I have not tried rolling back the drivers
EDIT: sheesh I just hit 101 celcius @ 50% fanspeed 0-4% activity, I was playing blackops last night at 90celcius slightly overclocked
