Sapphire R7 260X OC 2Gb max temps?

[Guest]

What is the max temp for the Sapphire R7 260x OC 2Gb edition, because when I'm browsing Reddit and programming my card is at 70-75c and while playing games my card goes up to around 90-100c, Is it normal for this card?

I recently cleaned the cooler and the heatsink from alot of dust, but the card is still performing at 70-75c, no lag ingame or anything.

MSI Afterburner data:
Core clock: 1150Mhz
Memory Clock: 1650Mhz
Power Limit: 0+
Fan speed: 48%

that is not verry good if it gets to 100 you will experience thermal throtling. may i ask your case to see what airflow it gets also that card is pretty small so cooling might not be the best

Actually it's the big card I have, this one. Also the case is a Antec VSK4000E.

Currently the case is standing against a wall with the case hole against the wall so it could be that causing the heat?
Note: It's not against the but 5cm from the wall.

yes it verry well could be you should give the exaust fan more space to dissperce.

I moved the computer and opened the case, the fan is not spinning. And it will only spin if I set to 80% in Trixx.

hmmm thats wierd im pretty sure its that the voltage the program sends al the way up to 80% is not enough to get it spinning.

How can I change that?

try reinstalling the program or using a diffrent program.

it's not normal........ r7 260x max temp range is 80c.....anything above it, will reduce life span of the card.....maybe the dust still inside of the card,and this is the reason for high temperature
