MSI GTX960 Gaming 2G OC Edition Review

The tests were performed in a controlled air conditioned room with temperatures maintained at a constant 23c – 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 Crysis Warhead for 30 minutes and measuring the peak temperature. We also have included Furmark results, recording maximum temperatures throughout a 30 minute stress test. All fan settings were left on automatic.

The Twin Frozr cooler V performs exceptionally well, peaking at 54c under load. This is only a single degree worse than the Asus GTX960 Strix OC Edition.

  1. Fully agree. It’s the reason I won’t buy another MSI “Gaming” card. I have to use the Gaming App or Afterburner to OC my GTX 760 Gaming card to get the clock speeds MSI advertise. This is silly. I want to install a card and forget it. I need an upgrade for my kids’ HTPC/Gaming rig but don’t want to have to select the OC every time we turn it on. You were right to test this card at the out of box clocks. MSI need to learn from this. Asus card for me next, once the GTX 960 Ti comes out! That’ll be a worthy upgrade to our GTX 650 Ti.
