How hot does the GPU run at full load?

I have gotten the cpu to 80F and around 75F for video rendering/exporting using a basic 2 fan laptop cooling pad. Fan speeds were around 5k i think? (According to Dragon Gaming Center) Using hdmi cable to watch movies or average gameplay is around 50F I think

It handles it very well with the settings on high and after one hour of gaming noticed that the unit started to produce more heat than normal. As expected of any laptop due to the load on its GPU, but it never froze, slowed or anything of sort. Do not expect a alienware or SLI performance out of this machine it still a single mobile GPU but it does a great job.

It kinda depends on how you use it. If you simply use it for word or ppt processing everything is superbly cool unless you turn the GPU on fire by playing demanding video game.

This is the same setup I have running on this board, 8350 with a 280. Under heavy load this cpu gets extremely hot so I would recommend a liquid cpu cooler and a case with excellent airflow. My rig has been running 24/7 without issue. The hottest I've seen my computer get was 134F with an ambient room temp of 87F.

It has active processor fan, running up to 6000 rpm if you start graphic app

Hi, Ryan. I can't speak to your specific hardware configuration, but I can give you mine for a somewhat-apples-to-somewhat-apples comparison.I am running this same GTX 650 Ti 2GB in a machine with: i7 950 overclocked to 3.07GHz, 16GB RAM, 1x 64GB SSD, 2x 1TB 7200RPM HDD, 1x 750GB 7200RPM HDD. This machine has a 600W OCZ PSU, and I've had no issues with lack of power. YMMV, of course.This is a great little consumer-level card, probably the best I've owned so far. It has taken everything I've thrown at it (all games on "high" settings) with ease.

Idle temperatures are around 45-55C on mine. Maxing it out on Prime95 brings it up to about 80C, which is kind of hot, but not "OMG the CPU is going to overheat" hot.

Hi, I tested this laptop with Grid Autosport and playing like for an hour it reached 74C on GPU and 80C on CPU. It's ok for a laptop which wasn't designed for playing games.

Yes, it does run hot and there we're times I felt like my hand was going to burn on certain places of the laptop. It only runs hot when I'm gaming for hours tho. I have not reached 100C as of yet. I put a fan underneath the laptop and can get around 85C, has spiked to 95C here and there then goes back down. I'm extremely happy with my purchase tho. :)

I find the temperatures to be satisfactory, and honestly this is a very quiet graphics card. But honestly if you're looking for complete silence, I would watercool anyways. But, so far , I have no problems with my graphics card.

I run world of warcraft, battlefield 4, and many other high end games at max settings. it will get hot doing it but turn on the fan boost and your golden.

I currently use this on an AMD a10-5700 and have not had any problems with keeping it cool. I use it as a media PC so it runs 24/7.

I do some instructional screencasts and am occasionally a binge gamer... I've been consistently amazed by the temperature control on my laptop. After a few hours of a very graphics-heavy game it'll get hot, but I don't notice a performance hit and it cools off very quickly when I close the game.

It was audible in my system.... enough so that I stopped using it. You can lower the fan speed all the way, but it was still audible, and of course it won't cool as well. When the fan is at max speed it cooled my nvidia card around 8 to 10 degrees C. Giving your video card a good cleaning will help a lot too.

Depends on the CPU but I am running an i7-3770k @4.4ghz and mine never gets above 60c (using realtempGT) on full folding load with GPU folding as well. Thats with a corsair h100. A customer loop will likely do better.

They do run a bit hot, but not as much as the R9 280X IMHO. The new fan design does a great job of cooling the card. If anything a bit noisy. Its a great gaming card

I've owned several ASUS mid-range gaming laptops, and this is by far the best and the highest specced. The dual vents on the rear keep it super cool. As far as actual temperatures, running Prime95, downloading SWTOR, a Steam game, multiple tabs the CPU and motherboard are 79 celsius and GPU about 52. This isn't normal usage, but as far as high performance machines, this one gets the job done on cooling. The rear vents are nice, my last ASUS had a side vent and I would put a drink there and it would be warm in no time. I haven't actually put it on my lap, and probably never will but a quick touch of the bottom and you can't tell anything is going on.
