Is the GTX 480 still good?

Gtx 480 lacks many features of modern cards have like dx 11.1. It’s very power hungry and should only perforn as well a gtx 750 ti. Passmark is not a good indicator for actually gaming performance. If you going to buy a used card the amd 7850 is a better buy.

Is 120 degrees hot for GPU?

Actually, from what I have seen the temperature thresholds for most cards is usually set to around 120C. My GeForce 6800 is set to 125C but it has never gotten hotter than 75C and that’s in a crappy Dell case. I say as long as you are under 100C you are fine. If you get higher than that become concerned.

How hot should a GPU be at 100%?

Completely normal. 70 is considered warm. 80 is considered hot. 90 is absolutely unsafe and so you could expect thermal throttling.

What is the max safe GPU temp?

Because of this, it’s hard to say what’s a safe temp for all cards. Regardless, it has always been a rule of thumb that graphics cards should stay under 80 degrees Celsius or 176 degrees Fahrenheit.

Is a GTX 480 good for gaming?

GeForce GTX 480 Game Requirement Analysis GeForce GTX 480 is a high-end GFX based on the 40nm Fermi architecture. It’s based on the Fermi GF100 Core and offers 480 Shader Processing Units, 60 TMUs and 48 ROPs. Its gaming performance is still outstanding.

How old is a GTX 480?

2010
The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 480 is a high-end desktop graphics card that was introduced in 2010. It is based on the GF100 Fermi chip which is produced in 40nm at TSMC. The GTX480 uses only 480 of the 512 shaders of the GF100 silicon.

Is 120 degrees too hot for CPU?

RE: Is 120-130 degrees to hot for my cpu? No, not at all, this is perfectly normal temperature, and quite safe.

Is 130 degrees hot for a GPU?

Distinguished. As a rule of thumb keep a GPU bellow 80C with maximum load. A GPU can get a lot hotter than a CPU which you should keep under 60C. GPU’s are designed to run hotter than a CPU but if you go over 100C you will damage or severely shorten its life.

Is 76c OK for GPU?

As long as you don’t go above 85-90, you’re fine. (Same with the CPU.)

Is 80 GPU temp safe?

Honorable. 75 – 80° on a GPU is perfectly acceptable. You could lower this by adding more case fans to improve airflow, but that temperature is certainly not harming your GPU.

What should the temperature be on a GeForce GTX 480?

Depending on operating environment of the card, users should expect to see normal 3D GPU temperatures in the low to mid 90s (Celsius) on GeForce GTX 480/470. The maximum temperature for the GPU is 105C and the card is tested to operate reliably up to this limit.

What’s the maximum power draw for a GTX 480?

This model has the maximum power draw of 250 Watt. The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 480 supports SLI technology, and will perform significantly better in games when used with up to 3 similar graphics cards.
