Hello so I just started watercooling and I feel like my temps are to high. I have the 2080 ti water cooled at temps while playing at 4k ultra settings averaging 85 celcius. I dont know if that is normal temps to be getting while watercooling. Any advise or tips? I have 2 360 radiator going to cool.

That's certainly high, but then it also depends on CPU. I'm not surprised with its temperature if there's an overclocked W-3175X in the same loop.

That’s way higher than my 2080 ti on a stock cooler

Yeah. So I'm not sure why I'm getting these temps. I've just took apart the waterblock and reapplied the thermal paste and made sure everything was nice and seated. My flow goes from pump to GPU to radiator to CPU to radiator to pump. I have my top radiator fan blowing, my front radiator I have pulling. I dont know if type of coolant matters but I'm using the primochill vue.20190321_212636.thumb.jpg.2a8357c69f090d4db6efb247ffba2e99.jpg

I'm just using the i7 9700k. Nothing is overclocked. I'm still pretty new so dont want to mess with OC yet.

are the fans all spinning at the same direction? Otherwise it will be recycling warm air.

 

Also open the side panel and see if temperatures get any better.

 

Mounting pressure is also a thing to check

My GPU is vertically mounted and only an inch or so from my side panel, I have 3 120mm fans on the front and then a 120 on the back as an exhaust and the fans on my AIO blow out the top, I ran a stress test and my card maxed out at 78 degrees, my variant is just an EVGA 2080 ti xc and its overclocked 750/75

I opened up the front and side panel and got a constant 55 Celsius. So it's most likely due to airflow. How should I orient my fans to optimize airflow. I have the dark base 700 case

Is that doll sitting on the gpu? Have more photos of this rig? (Can refer to other post if i missed that)

 

(Sorry, cant help with the temps but am now curious of the "showcase" ?

Yeah its sitting on the GPU. Still waiting on my cable mods to come in but besides that its basically done. Now I just gotta figure out this temp.

Front and top, one should be exhaust and the other intake. Now that I noticed you dont have a rear exhaust fan as it was blocked by a tube, too bad.

Wont it melt? GPU backplate can get hot enough to melt plastic.

Which one do I do intake? since you said top and front should be exhaust those are the only fans I have. 3 on top and 3 in front. I have the be quite silent wings 3 for fans. Should I swap then out?

 

The figurine is made from ceramic plus I put some thermal pads under it to help as well.

Front should be Intake, and Top should be exhaust normally. Fans should be fine.

My 2080ti is always around 83-85c while gaming even with 100% Fan speed Should i worry ?

I mean either it's top intake front exhaust, or top exhaust front intake. I mean, maybe you want the system to blow warm air towards you, maybe you dont, up to you.

 

Silent wings 3 are good at lower noise levels, though dont spin that fast at max speed so you cant blast them to improve cooling further.

Oh I though that's plastic, then your card could burn itself without hurting the doll :P  Are there extra support for the card though?

Okay I will have to fiddle around with my fans to see which is best and probably throw my 140mm fan on the back for extra exhaust. But I dont have a support for the card. Should I?

You'd better give support to the card. While taking the heavy heatsink off usually means you dont need support, a ceramic doll isnt light and does stress the PCB and PCIe slot. Also it could be applying pressure to your loop which is the last thing you'd want to take force.

Okay but with the support of my loop it sits the same as it would with or without the figurine on it. But a $10 support bracket is better then a broken $1300 GPU.

Dont even need a support bracket, a pile of coins on the right end of the card will do.

Well you're doing something wrong.

 

My 2080 Ti is 41C at 100% usage.

2nd one is at 35C.

 

With a single 360mm rad you should be seeing 50-60C but not 85C.

 

Reapply thermal paste / use better one? 

Ramp up the fans and see if there's difference?

Use smoke to check if there's enough airflow?

I just reapplied thermal paste the other day. I'm using the grizzly thermal paste. I'm getting 55 celcius with my front panel and side panel off. I think it's my case that's restricting airflow. My top panel only has one section for air vent and my front has none. I'm using the dark base 700. Which case are you using?

I just reapplied thermal paste the other day. I'm using the grizzly thermal paste. I'm getting 55 celcius with my front panel and side panel off. I think it's my case that's restricting airflow. My top panel only has one section for air vent and my front has none. I'm using the dark base 700. Which case are you using?

That's still way too high for 2 360 rads unless your ambient temp is in the 40's.

Yeah my ambient was pretty high. We had our heater on at 70 when I did this. But I opened a window to let some cold air in.

I meant in the 40C range. With a typical in door ambient, you shouldn't really have any problems keeping your GPU in the high 30's or low 40's.
