GPU normal temperature

[projectx]

Hi Good Day to all, PC experts please help.

I just want to know the Normal temperature of my Graphics Card.

 

By the way my GPU is MSI Geforce GTX 980Ti

 

i just want to have information both IDLE temp and while playing or watching or video editing

 

Thanks in advance

You're looking for monitoring software then, correct?

 

My favorite is MSI Afterburner

[McHox]

soo...just install any monitoring software and check it? can't tell temps if you don't even say what model

[App4that]

I idle at ambient temperature, but I'm also running a AIO.

I already got the MSI AFTERBURNER for my GPU monitoring and fan control

 

I mean i want to know the Normal Temperature of GPU..

Ambient temperature to the high 80s Celsius. That's normal.

80c is too hot for that gpu unless you like throttling.

whoever came up with the idea of the fans not spinning until the card got hot should be boiled in oil. set up a manual fan curve and make sure it runs all the time. try and keep the gpu 68c or under.

thanks, now having an idea.. just figured out that the fan is in AUTO so i put it to manual control

might be too hot for you, but the GPU could give a shit

The passive mode you refer to means that the fans don't spin until they are at 60 Celsius. Any non-reference Maxwell GPU has a heat-sink sufficient enough to achieve this idling without the fans spinning. It's not an issue. The throttling point is something you can set yourself, but I believe the default is something around 83 Celsius. Again, this is well below what might actually cause damage to your GPU.

 

Basically... calm down and stop worrying.

Thank You so much for your help, Because i download the Corsair Link Software and i saw that my GPU runs at 39C while watching you tube and and opening softwares so i panic a bit.

39C is good. It obviously depends on how hot your ambient is, but still.

 

For context, I'm running SLI with open coolers so that's automatically hotter than a single card. One card is 40 Celsius and the other is 57 Celsius at the moment.

i'm not worrying about anything. 80c is just too hot. simple as that. the card can be designed to tolerate 100c, to much heat is too much heat.

same thing with the 290x. doesn't matter what card it is.

and then think about what happens while you're gaming. it gets hot the core speed drops and the game jitters/stutters.

80C is well within the specified tolerances. It will throttle well before heat becomes and issue, and throttling these days with GPU Boost means basically nothing. It's not like the told days where the frequency would switch constantly between 783 and 230 MHz. That caused stuttering. Alternating between 1500 and 1483 doesn't.

I don't care what anyone says ... GPU should be under 75°C all the time, to increase life span.

They do say that GPU won't die or get broken if it runs on 85°C, but that's just pushing it to the limit.

 

Try to keep it under 75°C if possible.

Such a well sourced and reasoned retort.

"Anyone" being Nvidia in this case. "Pushing it to the limit", according to Nvidia, is 91 Celsius.

Below 80*C is what I tell people. 

 

Below 70*C is what I shoot for.

Thank you so much guys for your help..
 I maintain below 45C while playing dota 2 hehehe..

Using afterburner seems okay and taking back to auto settings after playing..
