    HD 5870 GPU Temp #3

    Added the other another SS to the OP showing max VDDC temps. One other thing to note is that, the further I increase the vcore, the bigger the delta is between GPU temp 1 and GPU temp 3. For example, at stock, the temp 3 is about 15-20c higher than temp 1... but at 1.26v, temp 3 is about 25-30c...

    HD 5870 GPU Temp #3

    ^ Those are non-reference PCB's, so they may have different sensor points compared to Reference boards. And I have yet to see a reference 5870 without thermal pads on the memory... I usually only see a lack of thermal pads on non-reference cards. If GPU Temp 2 is VRMs, then what are VDDC Phase...

    HD 5870 GPU Temp #3

    GPU-Z (and W1zzard) has stated that GPU Temp 1-3 are all on the GPU die itself. The VDDC/VRM temps are under control. It's a Sapphire card, reference model. Not sure on the exact revision.

    HD 5870 GPU Temp #3

    For some reason, GPU Temp #3 is much higher than my GPU core/GPU Temp #2 temps under load. The delta between GPU Temp #3 and #1/2 can be as large as 20-25c. When I'm idling, all the temps are around the same (~35c) From what I understand, GPU Temp 1-3 are all on the GPU die? If it was a...
