expected room temp for new gpu

[dfsgsfa]

currently using gtx970 at 82C fan 80+% load

 

if i get a sapphire 5700 with xt bios, some user gets 75~80C 

 

will it be any cooler ?

You can always undervolt it if you want to lower temps, or improve the case's airflow if it's bad. But it won't "get" any cooler overtime, unless it gets really chilly in your room.

i can leave it at idle temp, but thats not the point here

What is the point? Getting lower temps during load? That's what my suggestions were for.

if i swap a gpu with similar peak temp , i assume theres not much diff , right?

Wait, are you asking about the temperature of your room? As in the room will heat up because of the GPU?

 

In that case, you only should look at the wattage the card uses / puts out. That wattage inevitably makes it into your room as heat. Think of it as the card being a space heater with a certain wattage output, because that is basically how it works.

 

The temperature the card runs at is irrelevant, just as the surface temp of a space heater is irrelevant. Only wattage output.

Depends entirely on the cooling solution of the GPU's. The 5700XT will use more power.
