Temperature curves and boost clock rate in detail
The cooler works well for its size and since I want to compare the two BIOS versions, I completely dispense with the values of the open benchtable, which is unrealistic anyway. The comparison reveals a greater difference in both clock rate and temperature. The OC-BIOS allows temperatures from 71 to 70 °C, while the Silent BIOS exceeds this mark with approx. 74 °C. The OC-BIOS is a very good choice for the Silent BIOS. Interestingly, the extreme jumps in the clock rate hardly have a negative effect on the percentiles, so that the Silent BIOS is actually the more sensible solution here as well. In spite of all the regulatory frenzy.
This doesn’t look any different in the stress test, as the waste heat is largely the same as the power consumption.
And now the whole thing again in sober numbers in table form, whereby I compare both BIOS versions in the closed case:
Initial Values OC and Silent BIOS |
Final Values OC BIOS |
Final Values Silent BIOS |
|
---|---|---|---|
GPU Temperatures |
33 °C | 71-72 °C |
74 °C |
GPU Clock Rate |
1925 MHz | 1837 – 1925 MHz |
1734 – 1783 MHz |
Room Temperature | 22 °C | 22 °C | 22 °C |
Air Temperature in the Case |
25 °C | 44 °C | 42 °C |
Board Analysis: Infrared Images
The following picture gallery shows all infrared images for the gaming and torture loop in a closed case, but with both BIOS versions as comparison. The pictures are self-explanatory and speak a clear language. And I would like to point out once again that the sensor values for the memory are absolute nonsense, as the temperature under the flip-chip modules of the memory is also measurably lower on the board side
No matter whether OC or silent BIOS: the cooler cools quite neatly within the bounds of its possibilities.
