Hello everyone,

So i recently got this gpu and first thing i wanted to check was temps because of it being hybrid.
I noticed the temps are higher than comparing to the reviewers and what i have seen on some forums.

Idle temps: 37c
Load temps: 58c
Ambient temps: 30c
These temps are without sidepanel of case just so airflow shouldnt become an issue.

This is how it looks now:

Casing: Thermaltake Versa C23
PSU: Corsair RM650

So what do you guys think? Are those temps normal?

But the gpu fans are spinning even at the idle temps :/ (I didnt change the fan settings btw).

Some graphics cards stop their fans when the GPU is very cool, some other just won't. That temps are perfectly fine. Exaggerated example, you would be fine even if idle temps are 60ºC. Fact: Some MSI graphics cards just have their fans stopped until the GPU goes above 60ºC.

When i put the side panel back on, the idle temps goes to around 39c and load temps to 60, is that normal too?

If the fans are stopped while starting the computer and start spinning when windows load, maybe some software is overriding that behavior. If they're spinning all the time, maybe you need to update your MoBo or GPU BIOS. Be sure that your exact graphics card should have that behavior of stopping fans at idle.

I'm sorry, I can't give you more tips as I haven't tested any card of that kind. Anyway, open a new thread with that question in the topic so people can see the new problem and help you better :)
