Posted December 14, 2020 Author 14 minutes ago, Moonzy said: guess it's your case not having adequate airflow, 15c drop is a lot try gaming now, see if issue persists so about 74-76 on the flats and 82 on the highs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted December 14, 2020 1 minute ago, Jelz said: so about 74-76 on the flats and 82 on the highs this is more of an expected temp from a stock cooler on 3600 does your game still drop frames? -sigh- feeling like I'm being too negative lately Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted December 14, 2020 Just now, Jelz said: yeah i always forget to update stuff haha, whats DDU? display driver uninstaller, it's the cleanest way to reinstall graphics drivers, it solves many graphic driver related issues that cant be solved by normal uninstalling and reinstalling -sigh- feeling like I'm being too negative lately Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted December 14, 2020 Just now, Jelz said: so do i update my drivers, then install ddu and run that. it wont delete the current drivers im using will it ? download DDU and the latest driver form nvidia's site, then unplug from the internet (to prevent windows from installing their own driver after u use DDU) then boot into safe mode(optional) and run DDU, then install the latest driver and you should be good -sigh- feeling like I'm being too negative lately Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
