AMD HD6450 Review

The tests were performed in a controlled air conditioned room with temperatures maintained at a constant 25c – a comfortable environment for the majority of people reading this.

Idle temperatures were measured after sitting at the desktop for 30 minutes. Load measurements were acquired by playing Crysis Warhead for 30 minutes and measuring the peak temperature. We also have included Furmark results, recording maximum temperatures throughout a 30 minute stress test. All fan settings were left on automatic.

The fan peaks at 50%, which is reasonably quiet, even when loaded with the Furmark stress test. When gaming, the temperatures generally peak around 57c rising to 62c under synthetic load. This is a cool running card, as we would expect.
