So I have the Sapphire Nitro+, and was wondering if you have monitored your temps on idle?

My temps creep up to 62C, then the fans kick on at about 30%, and cool it down to about 42C, rinse and repeat.

It's the oddest fan curve I have seen. Just wondering if yours act in a similar fashion, or if this is just how Sapphire programmed it. I have been waiting more than a month for a waterblock, and it looks to be a couple more weeks. I'll be happy when it comes in, because then the fan curves will be a non-issue.

Quick update for you. I let the Adrenaline software run a log for about 3 hours while essentially doing nothing. It fluxed between 62 and 58C the entire time. I haven’t gotten into any really hard core gaming tests but my son playing Minecraft and me playing Diablo IV never got it above 69c. I’m not even sure if I heard the fans.

I appreciate the update! Seems pretty similar to mine, so I'm guessing there a some similarities in the VBIOS. Thanks again!
