Yeah, Sapphire cards have terrible cooling. Not as bad as XFX of course, but still insufficient. I don't know why they're always recommended for mining.

my sapphire dual-x 280x (among the cheapest cards) stays quite silent and gives solid hash rate Smiley I may try asus direct cu top next time

EDIT: dont panic, GPU 1 is the iGPU from AMD APU, I can't bear the mighty 10WU so it is disabled! For this reason, the ambient temp reading is also wrong, it is the hot hot aussie summer down under!
