Got mine a couple of days ago, and was pleased to notice I could put my HR-03 on it as well. Real nice GPU, and a vast improvement over my 8600GTs, and the cooler is quieter during idle than I expected, but that wont be an issue once I get the thermalright on there :)
Also chuffed to have spanned monitor modes back too. Just waiting for our Samsung 32" 7020 TV and Blu-Ray drive to arrive today, then I'll be a happy bunny :D
That's surprising. Is that testing the cards individually or in crossfire (I beleieve it's not unusual for crossfired cards to show different temps)?Quote:

I guess the picture will become clearer as time goes on and more people post their experiences with these cards, it's still early days.
Crossfire, with in both PCIE positions (MSI in slot one, then Sapphire in slot one) and separately.Quote:

the gpu usage is a bit off, 93 vs 99% but that doesn't translate into 19C. That's something that I'll have to look into. Could be a driver issue.

Do you get the same temps if you don't use the two cards at the same time?
The MSI card is actually cooler.
thanks rev, glad I bought the v1 coolers :) on all 4 of the cards I have comming
you have 4 on the way? Get your hearing protection sorted before delivery....they're loud lol.
Thanks ReverendMaynard.
Are the sapphire and asus coolers the same, they don't look like it to me.
Identical reference design for all V2 5770's. It's just the angle.
yeah top secret mission ;) Just testing 4-way out on the new board and antec tpq-1200 :up: def need muffsQuote:

Is it the exception or the rule? We'll have to wait and see but if the majority of people come to the same conclusion then Asus will have to be challenged on their claim that the V2 cooler is more efficient than the V1 counterpart as one of their representatives stated on the Bit-tech forums.
Must say I'm very surprised by that result.
We need more people with both revisions to really get the gist, but being someone who's been in the industry for years, unless something is failed outright, which the REV1 cooler is not by any means, companies won't just gift out a better cooling solution...they find the cheapest regardless of the performance.
you all made me worry a bit cause i bought a v1 5770 cause i needed a gpu fastly since it was my only parts missing for my build ( damm 5850 that was always out of stock made me go for the 5770 and i am very happy with it). About temperature, when i was running 3dmark vantage, the highest temperature i have seen was 52c and the idle temp is 30c with user defined fan speed in msi afterburner. Was running 960/1440 at 1174 volt with xfx stock bios, now its running at 1174 volt, 950/1350 when i need some extra power in game. In s4 league with 1920x1080 with high detail, it never goes up more than 44c
your temps are pretty much exactly how the V1 should perform.
It's more unusual for a company representative to make such a claim that's so easily disproved, though. I mean, to state an improvement had been made when actually the opposite is true would be a pretty stupid thing to do, wouldn't it?Quote:

Hey,
Yes, we've changed the cooler on the cards. You'll find that the new cooler is quieter and provides better temperatures.
You were right about the model code too, the "V2" describes that change of the card and is going to be replacing the original card (In the UK at least).

Needed to drill new holes, saw off some edges and reverse the whole mounting procedure, but in the end I managed to get it up and running..

It looks pants tho, I'd like to make a proper mounting plate, but I'll leave that for the December holidays..Quote:

It's not the design from the 5750. If you look closely at a 5750 the heatsink is very different underneath the cover - no heatpipes, just a very regular finned heatsink.Quote:

You can read it however you wish but it's all bull :banana::banana::banana::banana: too me. :)
