GTX 1080 always at 80 - 83°C while gaming

La_Bagu3tte

Hi everybody,

 

Title. I have a MSI GTX 1080 Gaming X. It is working correctly (I guess ?) but when I'm playing, it is always around 80 - 83°C (45-50°C idle) while my room temp is 28°C (or less with air conditioning). And I don't think that's something normal. I tried to put the fan at the max speed, it doesn't change anything.

I thought it could be the thermal past that need to be changed, but I never done that before. So, what do you think ? 

 

Oh and, doesn't change anything if I open the case or not... so it's not related to my case. 

 

Thanks !

It's normal in both situations. My card is the same. It's sitting on that idle temp because it doens't need active cooling when doing nothing so it's a little higher.

repaste, either yourself (could void warranty if you break the sticker, unless you're in the US) or by the manufacturer via RMA. 1080 GX should stay within the 70s easily.

Well, I see mostly on tests or videos of 1080 that is shouldn't be that hot. Maybe Turing cards are differents in term of temp ?

The card is already more than 2 years old, don't have any warranty anymore. Any advice about the thermal that I should use ?

thermal grizzly kyronaut: high performance, premium paste

noctua nh-t1: more budget friendly paste

arctic mx4: also a good budget paste

toothpaste: find out whether there are something else wrong with the cooler. cheap but not durable. Performance is ok until it dries

Many thanks ! Now I need to figure how to open my card and change that paste ?

taking out all the screws at the back should do. Old thermal paste can make seperating the heatsink from the GPU a bit violent

Before you take the card apart, have you adjusted fan curves and made sure it isn't running in a stock "quiet" mode?

Of course, this is the first thing I tested. And like I said, even with fans at max speed, it wasn't making any difference. :/
