temperature and OC test
Idle mode the core temperature is 45C.
In load mode core temperature rise to 78C.
And we using ATITools to find the max core/mem. Finally we got 756MHz/1026MHzγ
Although Sapphire HD 3850 is a fanless design, but it still have a good OCbility. 756MHz/1026MHz is a place very close to HD 3870. Please have a good air flue in your chassis, OC will burn your core especially it is an fanless version graphic card.
