Sapphire Dual-X R9 270 Review

The tests were performed in a controlled air conditioned room with temperatures maintained at a constant 24c – 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 Dual-X cooler performs well, hitting around 62c under gaming load, and peaking further to 67 under the synthetic Furmark stress test. The cooler doesn't score quite as well as the Direct CU II TOP featured on the faster R9 270X.
