Captain_Tom said: Oh I have to 100% agree there. That's why I am not buying until 20nm. Imagine the performance of this on 20nm with a new architecture! However I have to quote this: "Again AMD On This: We have designed the 290 Series to operate at a steady state of 95C. By running at 95C, we are both maximizing the performance and minimizing the acoustics of the product. Be assured, that 95C is a perfectly safe temperature at which the GPU can operate for its entire life. There is no technical reason to reduce the target temperature below 95C.

It will be interesting to see if this holds true... |
I think that too high... a lot high for a processor 
but if AMD is saying who am I to complain?
But I disagree with the part of the "minimizing the acoustics"... the test shows 60Db in load... that's ridiculous.... it is loud like... I don't know... live close to a train?
