Temperatures and a failure
We already mentioned it, the card already reaches its thermal limits in an open setup at a room temperature of air-conditioned 22° when it is properly challenged via OCCT or a Perlin noise loop. If you run Metro 2033 in a loop, you still reach an impressive 86° in single-monitor mode. From our point of view, a sensible operation in a silent case without any cooling is not practical. The thermal knockout in multi-monitor operation was a warning to us, especially since a simulated room temperature of 28°C already led to a failure with only one monitor in the Metro loop. Here a limit of the passive principle has been shown.
Quiet fan for support and case test
We equipped the card with a very quiet Scythe Slipstream, which only runs at 800 rpm and which we do not regulate. We took the temperature measurements again (blue bars, see above).
Furthermore, we wanted to know how the airflow in the closed case affects the card.
The blue bar again shows the performance with fan support, which incidentally outshines all other cooling solutions in terms of noise. More about this later. First, let’s look at the individual housing performances (yellow bar). The installation in a cube is of course purely a question of space, despite everything the card already wins from the minimal airflow and at least does not crash even under artificial full load. The larger the case volume and the more defined the airflow, the better the cooling performance will be.
