At this setup, the score was fine.

But powerlimit sign is kinda make me confused. Is 550W not enough for this rig?

yes power limit just mean at that particular moment the graphics card was limited by it's power limit...which is normal otherwise the clocks would keep climbing and it would crash and overheat and stuff...

They put that there so that the card has a limit...something has to prevent it to pull 350W and blow itself...it's called the power limit.

So it told us that gpu already reach his max power like 160W ? To prevent 'my pc' to force shutdown?

No, that mean the card already reached the power limit set in gpu bios.

First of all down lode the utility's of you graphics card if you haven't. Because it help you dial up the card I normal set my power usage to a 100 % and my temps to safe temps so it does not get to hot in the utilises tools with fan speed.

I see. From afterburner, it tell me 100% power limit and 83c temperature limit. I need to find solution from my heat problem first. 

Because if im playing COD:MW with Raytracing on and maximum settings, the temperature rise until 80c.

Tecware Nexus C

Only fan default from the case. And 2 from my old case.

For now, maybe its better than my old case. Does fan affect much?

Yea if you dont have fans on the top get two 120 mm blowing out the case if it is air cold use decent fans it does make a difference.

That is 9 fans in total!   I would add more,  but....

That’s why I turn the power to max on every card. Or mod the bios to make it what ever.

Galax 2060 1-Click OC cooler performance is poor, nothing much you can really do about it other than slapping a beefier cooler.
