MSI GX740 with 5870 1gb ddr5

My GPU idles around 45C. Tops in Furmark extreme burning mode is 70C. Room temperature between 23C and 25C. But all that is after some serious modding.

OMG! Can't believe that. I never do the Furmark test, but in usual games, my temps can be 77-85C. I wish I could do some modding, but I'm afraid that I will do some damage to the lap. Do you guys know if there is anywhere do this for you?

The flight cost may be sufficient for a new one already...

Hi,the utility SRS Premium Sound is recommended to install it?
Sorry for my english...

It seems that there's a new VBIOS that fixes overheating issues, as it's stated here. Has anyone tried it out yet?

[catacylsm]

There aren't OH issues as far as i can see,

Idle temps look to be cooler yeah,

Max clocks, unless the voltage has been changed won't be any cooler i dont think.

It's "almost" the same vBIOS as posted here!
But will check it.

MSI has slow testers

OK OK, there is slightly difference! The vBIOS-info and the UVD clocks.
Lowering to 400/600 is better than 500/1000.

Edit:
Uh, early monday
It's not the UVD, which is different. It's the high load 2D setting (clockinfo 02)
Sry

Yep, almost the same but still more recent, I will try it tonight (with lowered voltages, default voltage on this vbios are 1.05/0.9

What did you use to stick the fins on the heatsink?

[Marecki_clf]

Arctic Cooling Thermal Adhesive. You can purchase it on ebay, just like I did. It works wonders, just make sure the layer is really thin. Apply some pressure while heating up with a hair dryer (for approx. 3-4mins).
