Title: HD 5770 AT 100 DEGREES
Post by: yamato57 on June 18, 2011, 06:20:48 PM
My sapphire HD 5770 IGB runs at 100 degrees when i run the phoenix program at the clock core of 850 which is the default. Does anyone know why this is happening?? ???

my setting on phoenix is

toasty saying that mine runs at 90 higher with the side of the case on :). 120mm fan on the back of the case has packed in I need to replace it. and this is in a aircon room as well

clean your computer? add more fans?

weird thing is my 6990s are at 100% fan and only at 80ish degrees and in a 90 degree room with giant fans. this one is in a ACed room could it be cause i recently flashed my bios cause it was stuck at 500MHZ and now its fixed to 850??

If your room is at 90 degree(i guess fahrenheits) and your gpu is at 80 degree(with same scale) then your temp sensor is broken.

Are you saying 100F lol?

Pretty sure you mean 100C, turn the fan on the gpu all the way up, get better cooling too.

Try under-clocking your memory core to 300 MHz, are you running a crossfire setup?

i turned down the memory clock to 600 and fan speed at 100% and its running at 91 ish celcius. Is that normal??

i have a coolmaster 932 full tower and the computer is cooler then the room cause of the fans inside it.(this is the crossfire 6990s)

Fans can't cool below ambient - your temp. sensors are broken!

nice thermodynamics

Install MSI Afterburner, and underclock your RAM down to 300 mhz.  Make the fan speed 100%, and try taking the side of your case off.  Typically this will reduce the temp of the card by 15 to 20 C right there.  Also, if you have other cards that are near your vid card, like sound cards / tv tuners and such will make the card warmer just being near it and not letting the heat escape.  Try punching out extra metal covers in the back of your case as well to allow increased air flow.  One last thing, take a desk fan, and blow it directly into the computer, this is usually good for a 5 to 7 C lowering as well.  I run my 5770 at 970/300 and the temp never is higher than 70C, usually at 68C.

I don't know how familiar you are with the law of thermodynamics, but it's not possible to cool an object to sub-ambient temperatures using surrounding air, no matter how many 'fans' you have blowing on the card.

Try dropping your AGGRESSION to 8 or below. 

Also I found that poclbm was more stable and ran cooler for own three rigs having six overclocked 5770s running at 60-70 C.

Yes, You are right. Overclocked to 960/600 XFXs 5770 with 100% fan speed, temperature is 63-65 C. Two 120mm fans blowing air through case.
