My tiny room will always be heated by my Sapphire R9 280X Vapor-X when I'm playing games with temps reaching 70+. Processor is i7 4790K with Scythe Ashura. Will an upgrade of gpu reduce the amount of heat generated or should I switch to a liquid cooling solution?

Hehe since we are strolling down the memory lane,

Nvidia Riva TNT 2 > Geforce 6600GT > Radeon HD4870 > Radeon 7850 > R9 390

Anyway tested R9 390 last night and for 1080p gaming, it could last for a while. Tested most games I have all maxed out. Hopefully enough until the next 16nm architechture mature.

I'm resisting the urge to get a 290X or 970 so I can max out games in 1080p
Currently using a 280X
Hopefully can resist till Pascal rolleyes.gif
