A BIT OF TEMPERATURE-TAKING
Then there are the thermals. During our temperature
measurements, taken during a 10-minute 3DMark
stress test run, the software utility GPU-Z reported that
the GeForce RTX 2070 Super never edged above 74
degrees C. This result isn’t surprising, given the
consistent results posted by the RTX Founders Edition
cards that this card resembles.
Then, we ran our FLIR imaging test:

back vent of the RTX 2070 Super. Founders Edition
cards aren’t generally known for their top-notch ability
to push air out the back of your PC, but it looks like
