GPU - Gigabyte GTX 770 4GB Windforce OC Edition Rev. 2.0

I don't know my Fallout 4 temps off hand (haven't checked ever), but my Evga 770 rips it up fine.

How is the dust level? Are all the fans spinning?

Fans are spinning, there is no dust in the case what so ever

That's odd. My 770 is like 2. But I'd try thermal paste then report back.

Gee wow, my 750ti runs it fine.

 

You could also try boosting the fan speeds a bit.

They were running at almost 3000rpm

Well I have exact same card (for 1.5 yrs now), and my load temps are also steadily increasing (although not as rapidly as yours), when my 770 was new, i was getting 65C at load, now i'm hovering at 77c, but it's not bad if you ask me.

If I were you, i would just replace the thermal paste and call it a day.

It is getting close to Christmas.

 

Maybe its time to make the leap to a 900 series card?
