Discrete graphics card below 40 degree Celsius max?

[ykgoh]

Is it ever possible to have a discrete graphics card running below 40 degree Celsius at load similar to IGP, assuming room temperature is about 30 or 31 degree Celsius?

Water cooling.

 

[royfrosty]

Can. Liquid nitrogen lol. Below freezing.

This is asking too much. Water cooling also hard to get 40deg at.load with ambient at 31deg. Lol

Can. Saw someone using 3x360 rad before, and he was complaining his full load temps of 30-40 was too low

If no air con, then use PC will sweat like machiam eat steamboat.

What parts is your system comprised of and how are you placing it? Even my Powercolor 7870 myst running naked without case about 70cm to my left I dont even feel anything when playing games like Grid 2 or COD ghost.

Too low or too high?

 

[devilwahaha]

Too low. He was wondering if the cards were actually working

I thought if the graphics card is constantly running at 50 to 70 celsius, and passing out the heat, sooner or later the room temperature will rise to probably 35 to 40 celsius because of the hot air?

Will at least be hotter than under the sun in the open? No?

hello? time to wake up? even custom water cooling cant hit 40C in sg...

OK then. Guess I shall stick with IGP (Intel HD Graphics and AMD APU). Shall not bother with the idea of discrete graphics anymore.

Thanks all for sharing your knowledge.

You are very very misinformed lol. Unless you're playing in a room the size of a bed with no ventilation, the graphic card wont be able to heat your room to such temperatures. If not sauna rooms will be using graphic cards instead already

You seem to be saying a statement more than asking a question though, like you already believe a discrete graphic card will turn your room into a sauna room. Oh well your loss not ours

And I forgot to answer the most important question, or misconception in your original post. Intel IGP or even AMD's relatively much stronger APU are very tiny compared to the die size of even entry level models like AMD HD 7750. Bigger die = much better performance but of course also = more heat. But definitely nothing close to "standing under the sun". Have you actually tried standing under hot sun? I dont think any graphic card can come close to that kind of heat.

Seriously it is ok for discrete card to run at 60 70 degrees on load. They are design to withstand that kind of temperature. If got anything wrong can just claim 3 years or 5 years gpu warranty can liao.

If that logic were true, then sauna businesses must be very rich from their BTC/LTC mining

This is probably the best candidate for quote of the year.

TS, simple. bun buy case. setup your pc on the mb box, on air con.

can liao

The actual heat output depends on your card's power consumption, not operating temperatures.

For example, a HD7790 with an improperly seated cooler will run at, say, 90C, while a HD7970 with, say, an Accelero 7970 cooler will probably never break past 60 degrees unless your case ventilation sucks to the max.

However, the HD7970 is actually dumping a lot more heat into your room air than the HD7790. It's just a matter of the cooler doing its job; it's supposed to cool the card by transferring the heat to the air, after all.

I don't know how your room's ventilation works, but unless it's small as hell and has zero ventilation, a budget graphics card wouldn't be able to give you any heat problems at all.

Whether you need to buy a discrete card depends on whether you actually need to use it. It's got nothing to do with heat.

I think if TS wants to find out if the heat produced from the card/pc exhaust will heat up the room then he needs to write to the card manuafactuer to understand the amount of displaced heat in cubic measurement and then hash that against the cool intake air plus factoring in cool air in ambience to get a definition answer.

oh.. ok.. LOL
