Benchmark: Temperature
| Temperature compared to reference in Crysis 2 |
PowerColor HD 7950 PCS+ | Sapphire HD 7950 OC | XFX HD 7950 DD BE |
|---|---|---|---|
| -14.5% | -15.9% | -2.9% |
Low temperatures are a hallmark of well-cooled cards, and in this test, the PowerColor PCS+ and Sapphire OC lead the pack. Two dual-fan solutions deliver practically identical results, and are both roughly 15 per cent cooler than AMD's reference design. The XFX card has led the way in terms of performance, but it loses ground in this benchmark.
