Graphics Card Temperatures
Graphics Card Temperatures
So here we'll have a look at GPU temperatures. First up, IDLE (desktop) temperatures.
Overall anything below 50 Degrees C is considered okay, anything below 40 Degrees C is very nice and below 30 Degrees C - CEWL. But what happens when we are gaming? We fire off an intense game-like application at the graphics card and measure the highest temperature of the GPU.
So with the cards fully stressed we kept monitoring temperatures and noted down the peak (not average) GPU temperature.
- Radeon R9 Nano - The temperature under heavy game stress for the card stabilized at roughly 75 to a maximum of 78 Degrees C, that is OK for a cooling solution this tiny. These are the reading in a closed system as shown on the next page.
Please make sure your PC is well ventilated at all times, especially the smaller it is often the less airflow it gets - good airflow will help you on the overall GPU temperatures.
