The tests were performed in a controlled air conditioned room with temperatures maintained at a constant 21c – a comfortable environment for the majority of people reading this. Idle temperatures were measured after sitting at the desktop for 30 minutes. Load measurements were acquired by playing Rise Of The Tomb Raider for 90 minutes and measuring the peak temperature. We also have included Furmark results, recording maximum temperatures throughout a 10 minute stress test. All fan settings were left on automatic.
The dual fan cooler does a good job of keeping the card cool – holding a 57c load temperature result when gaming. This rises to 60c under Furmark.
We install the graphics card into the system and measure temperatures on the back of the PCB with our Fluke Visual IR Thermometer/Infrared Thermal Camera. This is a real world running environment playing Rise Of The Tomb Raider for extended periods of time.
Without a backplate installed on the PCB, we noticed several hot spots along the rear of the Asus RX 470 Strix Gaming OC. The hottest part measured almost 78c – nothing dangerous but a little higher than I would have liked to see from a lower range card like this.
Where is Doom? Are we not wanting to embarrass Nvidia by showing how strong this little card does with it?
I couldn’t tell which game had DX 12 enabled, much less anything that had a “before DX12” and “after DX12” comparisons
