Hi, recently i did a complete cleanup to my pc, like... everything. When i builded it again, i turned it up, launched PUBG, and 3 minutes or so after i start hearing really high fan noises, i look at my MSI Afterburner and i see that my GPU temperature is 70-82°C (The fan curve is not extremely agresive nor extremely quiet, it is something like in the middle, always worked fine like this). I got really scared because before i had temps like 60-68°C on load. CPU was fine as always.
What i did during my cleaning was the following (GPU related) :
*Disarm the GPU, completely.
*Clean the dust that was all over it, everything.
*Clean the Thermal Paste and aply a new one.
*Removed the guaranty sticker from the back of the GPU (it had no longer guaranty, it expired).
*Clean 'sticked' dust with some Alcohol, Cotton Swabs, Kitchen Paper and a lint free type cloth.
Build it again and just won +10, +20, +25 °C, what the fuck? This never happened before.
Rig:
*MOBO: Asus Prime B350 - Plus
*CPU: Ryzen 2600x
*GPU: EVGA GTX 970 SC (everything stock, not manually overclocked, stock cooling not water)
*PSU: Seasonic M12 II Evo
*RAM: don't remember the brand but it's 2x8GBs 2400 MHz
*Storage: A generic 1T hard drive.
I already tried:
*Cleaning up again and re-aply thermal paste.
*Complete cleaning of drivers and installing them again.
*Formating the PC, and installing everything again.
Nothing worked.
Don't worry about the airflow in the case, it has been always nice.
PLEASE, Help me! I'm desperate.
Btw, sorry if i wrote something wrong, i'm not a native english speaker.
