GPU gets hot when OC:ing CPU

CUMZY

Not sure if this is the right place but it is both CPU and GPU related. Anyways, I tried oveclocking my FX6300 to 4,3 ghz but my R9 280 card went up 5-6 degrees for some reason. I am cooling my CPU with a TX3 EVO on a M5A97 R2.0 motherboard. Im not too sure if the case heat build up was causing my gpu to run hotter but my guess is that the heatsink below the socket (on the motherboard) is heating the gpu pretty bad, the heatsink/s get warm/hot when searching on the web but I touched them while gaming, And I can tell ya that they are so damn hot, you will eaaaasily burn yourself if you dont put your finger away quickly.

In my Carbide 200R case I have 1 120mm in the front and a 140mm in the bottom, they both blow air into the case. In the top I got 1 120mm and 1 140mm blowing air out, my cpu also blows air upwards towards the top fans. And finally I got a H55 connected to the gpu which blows air out in the back!

plz halp

Have a hard time believing that, It must be that shitty heatsink, gets almost as hot as you babe <3

well ofc it gets hotter if the gpu gets hotter. lol

the case air will get hotter if the gpu is getting hotter, meaning the cpu will get hotter...

Dawg, its either the cpu or the mobo heatsink thats heating up the gpu itself, what's the temperature melting point of plastic or the pcb AHhah, I could really see that heatsink melting down my fkn PC

Melting point of silicon is 1400c.

Melting point of plastic is about 170-200c.

You're not going to melt either.

What's likely happening is the heatsink is warming up from the overclock, and due to its close proximity to the GPU, its causing the GPU to warm up.

EDIT:I want to see you make a chip reach 1400c please.

Hmm that's what I thought, this is shitty tbh, I just have to stay on stock clock I guess.

Get a non-POS mobo is my suggestion.
