Unless you are very concerned about temps. For a GPU 80 degC isn't really a big deal, when it get's up there your fan should kick on higher become audible to cool it back down. My guess is you haven't paid much attention in the past, and were shocked by the high temperature when you saw it, and now you are watching it like a hawk, becoming more concerned at these temps. The on-board fan controller automatically adjusts the fan speed based on the temperature that it's seeing, and keeps it within the ranges the GPU is designed to operate.
By manually setting the speed, you force it to run the fan harder all the time, so your PC will be louder and your GPU cooler. If you do this, you should make sure to keep an eye out for fan failure, as it's going to be working a lot harder when it's under small loads like if you leave a game paused and go for a meal or something , which can add up over a year or two and cause premature failure depending on the fan quality and how unlucky you are.
I wouldn't be worried letting it stay on auto if I were you. It's good to clean the card out once in a while to get your max temps down and reduce the strain on the fan, but the fan controller will still let it get up to the same temp before kicking into high gear. Okay, well when I set my fan speed to automatic, it idles around 50c, is that normal?
Just seems warm for idle.. A Bad Day Distinguished. Nov 25, 2, 0 19, 2. Nov 23, 19, 4 74, 2, One thing i would like to know is does your card idle at mhz or ? I think some of the 's have a higher idle clock speed , just like with 2 screens. That would make the idles higher. May be worth looking at. I do not remember that high idle. When you cleaned it did you blow air from the fan to vent then vent to fan back and forth?
I really dont think dust is the problem, it wasn't dirty at all. These temps are higher then they were when I first got the card.. Im thinking it may need new thermal paste? Its only 2 years old, if that.. Probably about a year and a half old. Jun 11, 36 0 10, 0. How hot is the room you're in, and also how's your case ventilation?
You will see users with lower because the first cards idled at This helps allot. I do not think thermal paste breaks down that fast. I have had cards far longer, but, no harm in trying. Well, I live in seattle, so the temps here arent hot at all. My room is normal temp, prolly degrees. Now as far as ventilation goes, I haven't moved anything in years..
So ventilation really shouldnt of changed at all since I got the card.. I just dont want my GPU dying on me. Thats all lol, and im sure alot of people feels the same way. So 50c idle is okay temps? Should I keep it on automatic fan speeds? Or put it on manual. Currently at 52c. Watch the manual speeds just in case it needs more. I do not think you need to worry until at least 90c at least from a damage standpoint. The case it is in has plenty of air flow. Still, you should see lower boost clocks and can tweak as necessary.
Fan speeds vary a lot between different graphics card models, even with the same GPU. Some models prioritize low noise over temperature, which can mean GPUs that will push C. My personal philosophy after many years of testing and using a wide range of graphics cards is that lower temperatures are more important than a 'silent' graphics card—and I'm always a bit worried with models where the fans stop completely below 50C.
I'd rather have a slow fan speed of percent as a minimum, just to be safe, and I really don't like having a GPU exceed 80C. In Afterburner, I'll define a custom fan curve like the above to keep things in check. There's an alternative to adjusting the fan curve, which some might prefer.
The difficulty is that what happens when you exceed the target temperature isn't always clear. On some GPUs you might see higher fan speeds, others you might get lower clockspeeds throttling —or you might get a combination of both.
How much of a difference can the above make? I've found that a lot of RTX series cards tend to get quite toasty, especially the and Ti models. Interestingly, the GPU core itself isn't getting much hotter than that, but the surface of the card can still reach painfully hot temperatures. For the backplate that's still plenty hot, but without a fan blowing directly onto the metal there's not much else to be done.
While the above suggestions can help you better tune your graphics card if you feel it's running a bit hot, it's almost mandatory to tweak the settings on an SLI or CrossFire setup. Not that we really recommend multi-GPU solutions for gaming these days, as the number of games that fail to support or even work with multi-GPU continues to grow, but some games do benefit and some gamers simply want "the best.
If you're using graphics cards that prioritize quiet over cooling, it can create problems—I've tested SLI rigs for example that routinely crash unless I boost the fan speeds. One of the great things about PC gaming for me is the range of choice. That includes finding the right balance between temperatures, performance, and noise. If you find the default settings of a piece of hardware aren't quite what you like, it's usually possible to change them. Even if your graphics card isn't technically overheating, you may find performance and temperatures improve if you're willing to get your hands dirty.
Turn Vsync on I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart! I had experienced similar issues with high temperatures, but ever since I turned on Vsync it is going back to reasonable temperatures. I mean yes lower is better I don't know why it gets so hot and I was wondering if damage could be done to my GPU for playing at such high temperatures.
I've had the same problem and even been thinking of hardening my case instead of working on the real problem, which was the fan. Honestly, go have a look at it, it really does make a big difference. You need to blow it out if u want to save your gpu from doom. Are the fans spinning fast when it gets hot? It shouldn't go over 85c. If your fans aren't spinning up use msi afterburner and set the fan to auto My ti ftw3 ultra never goes above 70c.
Jul Im using gtx geforce and its heating up to 85C while Im playing games mostly Overwatch. Im pretty sure thats way too hot for the graphics card and Im afraid that its gonna get damaged.
Every time I ask somewhere for a way to cool it down people just tell me that it doesnt need a way to cool down but I dont think that its ok for it to be that hot. Is that too hot and if it is, how do I cool it down? All Results.
