Asus 4890 & Sapphire 4890 user here

My Asus 4890 runs cooler then Sapphire.

Idle temp is 51-52'c

Load temp is 71-72'c , never reached 75 smile.gif

While Sapphire is

Idle temp - 60-61'c

Load temp - 71-72'c

According to http://www.driverheaven.net/reviews.php?re...d=745&pageid=17

Asus runs cooler aswell..

the HD4890 really made me missed my HD2900XT, it's hotter, it's "hotter", it's heavier... what i mean hot is... it's HOT

for temperature wise... not much difference compared to HD4870... used to be @51°C (idle), 60°C (load), but on this HD4890 i got temperature reading 56°C on idle whilst on load is 67°C... the fan speed wise, my favourite speed... 65% tongue.gif

Well, 4890 is like 5 times faster then HD2900XT? lol
so the heat justify it, the faster the fps you want the more heat is needed

MX,Apr 13 2009, 02:39 AM]well its quite obvious OC should generate more heat...hot = fan spin faster?
well my friend using 4850 golden sample...very quiet and keeps the temperature around 60 degress region at full load...i guess any non-reference cooler should do a good job cooling the card

Ati4850 runs damn cool with non reference cooler
