For our temperature testing, we measure the peak GPU core temperature under load, as well as the GPU temperature with the card idling on the desktop. A reading under load comes from running the 3DMark Fire Strike Ultra stress test for 30 minutes. An idle reading comes after leaving the system on the Windows desktop for 30 minutes.

Things are even more impressive when we look at the thermal results. Using the P BIOS, the Strix's GPU peaked at just 54C which is just a ridiculously low temperature! Even when activating the Q BIOS, temperatures didn't move past 62C. Simply put, the thermal performance of this graphics card is second to none.

This is further demonstrated when looking at our thermal camera images, with hot spots below 50C on the front and rear of the card.
