Hi everyone,
I am running a sapphire 6870 in my computer and recently overclocked it to 975/1125 and was doing some temp monitoring and testing and noticed that i am getting completely different readings from Furmark, Trixx, and GPU-Z
after running furmark for about an hour i looked at the temps and it hit 80C for about two minutes after it ran for about 5 minutes and quickly stabled out to 75C and stayed at that for most of the run (jumped from 74C-76C)
i also had trixx and GPU-Z running in the background and after closing furmark i very quickly looked at the temps on Trixx and GPU-Z and they were giving both giving me 65C
honestly 10degrees is quite a difference and i dont know which one to believe furmark is saying 75C and trixx and GPU-Z are both saying 65C?
also i closed furmark and opened trixx and GPU-Z very quickly and there is no way they could have dropped 10 deg in the not even 2seconds that furmark was closed.
so i dont know what to do, i would like to believe that furmark is wrong and that i actually am getting 65C because then i can continue OCing but if 75C is true then i want to stop.
thanks for any help in advance
