Hello everybody,
I have XFX 5700 (non-XT) flashed with 5700XT bios.
I have been running this card for a while with the following settings: GPU - 2005 Mhz (actual around 1960 in games), VRam - 1780 Mhz, Core Voltage - 1.12V and Power limit - 50%. The temps I was getting with stock cooler were 90C GPU Tjunction, 82C Vram and around 76C VRM.
I recently put together custom watercooling loop with waterblock covering only GPU. Additionally, I am using backplate from Accelero Extreme 4 and some improvised RAM and VRM aluminium heatsinks on front of the card. I increased the GPU clock to 2100 Mhz and Core Voltage to 1.17V. The temps I am getting now are the following (measured in Superposistion Game - the card drawing constantly 195-210W): 78C GPU Tjunction, 96C VRam and 91C VRM. I had a plan to install VRM waterblock on GPU also, but as it would have required some modding to fit it correctly I discarded the idea (wish I had not).
Anyways the card is stable at this speeds (temperatures), but I find Vram and VRM temperatures a bit too high. My question is: should I worry about those temperatures or are they OK? If I go back to 2005 - 1.12V, the temperatures on core, RAM and VRM fall for around 10-15C.
