Posted April 28, 2017 Hello folks, I seem to have a problem "could be normal" When I turn on my Witcher 3 game on ultra setting and play for a bit that temprature on my GPU stays on 84c. Is that normal? keep in mind that my GPU is founder edition EVGA so i didn't expect great cooling. My case fan setting is set to positive. 3 120 fans for intake and 1 140 fan for outtake from the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted April 28, 2017 84C is acceptable for a blower style cooler. It's also why you shouldn't choose this over other cards when you have so many case fans for heat dissipation.

Posted April 28, 2017 I think 84°C is causing it to throttle, so your performance will be a bit lower than it could be. As long as you keep your GPU under 85°C it will be just fine.

Posted April 28, 2017 I think you can change the fan speed for the cooler. If I'm not mistaken it only hits 100% when up on 90c, so maybe dowload MSI Afterburner and change the fan curve? Might help!

Might help! +1 turn the fan up...it might get loud, but it might be preferrable to lowering the settings. It's why I don't use blowers...too loud for me...I generally only use open coolers and distribute the cooling burden across multiple quiet case fans running at regulated speeds (currently got a closed loop on my 970 because I had it laying around but...generally speaking I have an open cooler graphics card and utilise multiple, quiet system-fans to manage the heat).

Posted April 28, 2017 seems normal, as the FE edition cards have pretty crappy coolers. as stated above, turning up the fan helps with cooling, but also leaves you with a jet engine in your case. if you really want silence but don't want to skip on performance you could look into the hybrid solutions available, like the Kraken G10 bracket with a small AIO. -Phoenix- -VouwFabriek- -SolidNAS- BlackMac Woody Clack Virtuality Lil'Lad Plot-Device Boerderij all your proteins are belong to us.
