Hello,

ive just got my STRIX yerderday so far so good. But i think the temperature in idle is a lil high.
Its about 58 - 63 only an desktop nothing open.
But in test with FURMARK the card is still at 66 with FAN cooling. So my question is this normal?

My RIG:

CoolerMaster HAF XB Case
ASUS Maximus V Extrem
I7 3770k
ASUS ROG Swift PG278Q

Your idle temperature depends on what case you're using, the airflow inside your case and more importantly your ambient temperature. The fans will kick in when your GPU hits 66C.

Ah ok thanks for the info so i will resetup my airflow 🙂

btw. Keep up the good work Guys your Hardware is awsome!
