AMD Radeon R7 240 max temperature

[dunel]

Hello, can somebody tell me what's the maximum temperature that the AMD Radeon R7 240(2GB DDR3) can withstand? I think mine is overheating because it sometimes reaches 89-90 degrees Celsius while playing Battlefield 3. I haven't cleaned my PC since I bought it(about 5 months ago) so the accumulated dust may be the problem but I'm not sure.

that is a fine temperature. the 200 series of cards can run upto 100 degrees. it is high, but it is still ok

hope this helps!

If you happen to track down any information on sustainable GPU temperatures for your card, please update this thread.

I currently have my PowerColor AMD Radeon R7 240 2GB overclocked (quite significantly) and have noticed the GPU getting closer and closer to 90° after averaging 70-80. I'm guessing the thermal paste isn't holding up too well for this card, despite only purchasing this system in late December. To make matters worse, it's been idling around 45°-50°. It's certainly concerning as PowerColor doesn't have any sort of information on the temperature this card can handle.

Sorry, but I haven't found any useful information about this GPU's temperature threshold. It's a pretty low end card so I'm guessing it isn't that good with the temperature, especially in modern, high-demanding games+ it's an AMD.
