Test Bench
For our tests, we used our Project Core Arancio system which is comprised of an ASRock Fatal1ty X99 Killer 3.1 motherboard, along with an Intel Core i7-6800K at default clock speed of 3.4GHz, as well as 16GB of ADATA XPG Dazzle DDR4-2400 ram in dual channel mode.
We used AIDA64 GPU stress test which produces 100% GPU load and recorded the temperatures.

Idle Temperatures
Temperatures for an idle Zotac GeForce GTX 1070 AMP Extreme was a cool 30 degrees Celsius. I like it! Now for some load tests.
Load Temperatures
Wait! I am I seeing this right ?!?! … 40 degrees Celsius at full GPU load! Amazing! It’s the lowest temperature I’ve seen so far for a GeForce GTX 1070. So I guess the Bitspower GPU Water Block is working correctly 🙂
