Join us, as we review the ASUS GTX 780 Ti DirectCU II OC edition. The customized product is equipped with the ASUS popular DirectCU cooler armed with two fans. It remains to be quiet and keeps temperatures at roughly 70 Degrees C. ASUS clocked this product for you towards 954 MHz on the GPU core, that means it can boost towards 1020 MHz on all of the unlocked 2880 Shader processors available.

I'm sure ASUS would of tested the VRM's to their max before using them.
From what I understand they are 10 Phase VRM's, and after reading all the reviews most GTX780ti cards range from 70 - 95c.
The Thermal imaging and sensor temp differences are strange though.

I've got a Carbine 500R case, so there's a 200mm fan blowing directly onto the card.
Thermal pad like Phobya Thermalpad Ultra 5W/mk - 0.5mm would be ok I'm guessing.

Though I just saw the EK Waterblock, might be time to do some real watercooling on the card.
Could pickup a XSPC Raystorm 750 EX240 Kit.

Couldn't agree more, the card looks awesome even without the stickers.
(I have a all black theme going so I didn't put them on)

Might try the Thermal pad's between the back plate first, Dropping the VRM's a few degrees cant hurt.
70c isn't that hot for the GPU and I don't see a need to overclock the card yet..

Wrong picture

The 3rd page (that means the 2nd SHOWCASE page), showing a wrong PCB Picture.
\it is not the ASUS CUSTOM PCB (think its the reference).

THIS IS THE REAL ONE:
