ECS 9800 GTX + running at 55nm not 65nm?
I recently bought a ECS 9800 GTX +, and I noticed I was a little warm. I had purchased the GTX '+', As it has a 55nm core, and this should run cooler than a 65nm one. GPU-Z opened and said that my card is 65 nm. The speeds are 740/1100/1836 core / memory / shader, which are the speeds of the GTX +. The card runs at 50C when idle and 80C when tested for GPU Crysis (DX9 high non-AAX). I've read some reviews and most say that both the GTX and GTX + running at ~ 70C under load, and mine is 80C! And my system adequate cooling! Why? And my card is 55 or 65 nm? And there's another program like GPU-Z that I can use?
The 9800GTX + has two 65nm GPUs in the former cards and 55nm GPUs in the new cards. You can verify that you have to take off the heat sink and looking at the GPU chip packaging: The greatest 65nms would "G92-270-A1" stamped on the GPU chip packaging, while the latest 55nms say "G92-280-B2". I'd trust GPU-Z though.
