I was wondering what others have as their fan curves? My fans run at 77-80%, is this okay? It keeps the GPU at 75 degree's.

Good to know the temps are fine. The 70% does seem high, but if I lower it the GPU temp will rise for sure. I saw someone on a different forum with 80% fan to deal with 70c temp. I'm like wow, maybe mines not so bad lol. The only thing I have done with my video card is just use a corded air blower for PC's on the fans. Spooled up the fans with the air blower until the fans sounded like they were spinning wayyyy to fast and then stopped. Only did this maybe 5-6 times. Someone on here did say this is not good to know and to hold the fans when blowing air on to them. So that's what I have been doing recently. Again, I only spooled the fans up at a high rpm with the air blower only 5-6 times. If the fans do ever go bad, hopefully they don't, I did see there are replacement fans you can buy. Now the issue is, how hard is it to install? lol What are the signs of GPU fans going bad? Clicking sounds? By the way, this is the air blower I used. It works great for cleaning the PC. Using the narrow tip helps to direct more air on to what you're trying to clean from dust https://www.amazon.com/Compressed-MECO-High-Pressure-Computer-Keyboard/dp/B082XR3987

Looking to see what others think. My 3 fans RPM's have maxed out so far at 70% at 71c. The fans running too high to cool down the GPU? Here is the temps and fan curve I'm using. Also, what's the life span of GPU fans especially these high end cards? Just curious...

The 3.3v, 5v, 12v rails look fine to me. My EVGA 1000w PSU, the 3.3v and 5v dipped a lot when gaming. And some reason had a hard time to rebound. Not sure what was wrong with that PSU sadly...

Just played a few mins of dying light 2 and this is the temps I get from gaming lol. Normally the MOS sits around 50-60c and the GPU sits around 65-74c. Not bad. So yeah, AVX2 spooked me a bit with the extreme temps for those 5 minutes of the test lollllll. My specs are: i9 9900k, 32gbs RAM, RTX 3090.

Oh yeah, the AVX2 not sure what it does exactly... but all I know is my temps went from idle to extreme hot real fast lmao. I'll post the temps on what I normally see when gaming for example. I'll load up dying light 2 real quick and post the temps.

Ah I see, didn't know. I thought the 80+ certification was an indication of quality on the PSU. Like the components within the PSU and how durable they are under stress. I did have a 80+ Gold EVGA 1000w few years ago. Only last me 2 years. Had constant reboots for no reason until I figured out it may be the PSU failing. And it was. Only 2 years of owning it. I still don't understand how it decided to die. Never ran anything hard on it, only gaming. So far, this Corsair HX1000i has lasted me 2 years and going strong. No reboots or anything. Even running that power stress test on OCCT for 5 minutes. Never crashed the PC. So far so good *knocks on wood* lol. I'm just new to OCCT and had no idea what AVX2 does. I learned quickly what it does lmao. Never saw all my temps sky rocket so fast like it did running the test for 5 minutes. Dear lord... lol

I usually stress test with Prime95, but OCCT is a different beast. I only ran the AVX2 power test for 5 minutes, and everything got hot lol. The PSU however was sitting cool, CPU, GPU, motherboard got hot. The MOS as you can see in the temps almost hit 80c. I figured 5 minutes of the test was long enough lol. Felt so uncomfortable seeing those high temps lol

Well supposedly the Corsair HX1000i has some sort of protection. It's a 80 Plus PLATINUM Certified. So I'd hope there is something to protect it lol. I'd assume the PSU would pop or fail before any other components gets hit like motherboard etc?

I was reading around that OCCT 'can' ruin PSU's. Is this true? I ran a voltage power stress test on my Corsair HX1000i and noticed all my temps sky rocket lol. Ran it for 5 minutes. My GPU and CPU got real hot. I'll post the screenshots. Not sure what AVX2 is. Maybe someone can explain?

Good to know, thanks. Again, I applied load from OCCT for those 5 minutes, and the system was stable. Maybe the front USB port is just dying, and has nothing to do with my system or PSU. Thanks for the help.

Well I was reading that maybe it 'could' be an issue with my PSU if my front USB ports keep disconnecting and reconnecting for no reason. Well, that's what I read on google. So this is why I went to use OCCT and stress tested my system. The heat that it created was insane. The MOS never reaches 80c, so it was a first time seeing that. I was honestly curious what the 3.3v rail uses. I thought it controlled the I/O to the motherboard. If nothing uses 3.3v rail anymore, then I guess I don't have to worry about it. My assumption the 12v rail is what's being used for everything? Well it never crashed for those 5 minutes of completely being stressed. So thats a plus lol

I noticed the 3.3v rail dips under .3 under extreme load and doesn't go back to 3.3v until I release the load. Is this normal? What does the 3.3v rail handle as for powering up the PC? I've been noticing my front USB hub disconnecting and reconnecting for no reason. So I decided to do a stress test to see if it has to do with my PSU. I ran the test for 5 minutes and the PC never crashed. The temps were real hot though. Here is the temps: As for my front USB to the case goes, not sure why that keeps disconnecting. I put such a massive load on the system for 5 minutes, and it never crashed. So who knows what the issue is. Just curious about the 3.3v rail and hopefully it's normal dipping under like that. The Corsair iCue software hasn't notified me with any issues to the PSU. Supposedly the software will tell me if the PSU is getting weak. Who knows? lol

This just started happening after owning my Phantek Enthoo 719 case. My keyboard and steelseries mousepad is both hooked up to the front usb port. And all I can hear is the sound windows does when something gets disconnected. The rgb to the keyboard and mouse pad go off and back on. Tried everything. Uninstalled the usb ports in device manager, still does it. Changed the power management to the usb ports to not suspend or turn off, and it still does it. Any ideas? I sit on my bed while this happens, so not sure if static electricity could be an issue. Not sure how though, it's not like I'm touching the usb port for the static electricity to transfer along the cord and leading to the usb port lol. Maybe the front usb port is faulty and needs replacing?
