1080 TI high temps

[TheNaitsyrk]

I've got 1080 TI Xtreme Edition from Gigabyte and temps are extremely high. For instance, I leave fan at auto, and I overclock 125% to power and 50 to Core Voltage and temps go as high as 82-84C. What's wrong? Fans ramp up to like 77%.

 

I think this affects my clocks as it often stays at 2050Mhz and the longer I play the more it drops. Sometimes it settles in at 2025 etc.

125% TDP on the mediocre gigabyte cooler will give you high temps, although that shouldn't be above 80c.

maybe try to remount the cooler with new TIM?

shouldnt be that loud. my brother has a asus strix 1080 and on 40% fan speed it wont go over 70°C with a bit of overclocking

+ new clean thermal compound application, arctic mx-4 for example

Not sure if I want to void my warranty. Also, it is the best offering from Gigabyte. It's the Xtreme version with 150% power limit unlocked.

Xtreme or aurous?

Damn. temps should be lower then.

maybe RMA the card? seems like a lot of hassle, but it might improve temps.

still though, the 1080Ti has a 250W TDP, and 50% more is 375W of power. That's a lot of heat for a small GPU cooler.

Small GPU cooler? This is 3 slot card.

my Founders 1080ti pushed that far (2050 Mhz) with 80% fan speed runs at 72C, something is not right for a cooler that large to require that fan speed. Look at the OC benchmarks from tech youtubers and see what temps they get, no card with fans that high should break 70ish

They have it at 73C. I had 3 cards, and two of them did this. I RMA'd the previous 2.

what is the airflow like in your case? do you have intake and exhaust fans?

It's fine believe me.

Nice setup! Have you seen how far the card will overclock at stock voltage? My founders is happy to run at 2025 albeit with a waterblock at stock voltage and from what I've read these cards don't necessarily react well to more voltage, it can often just make loads more heat. I'd be tempted to see how far you can overclock without any extra voltage and what the temps are like then. Do you have the gigabyte software installed as well as the nvidia drivers? I believe there is much greater control of the fans with the software installed and you can make sure that the card is running the right performance fan profile.

MSI Afterburner works fine when it comes to fan control. I am actually not sure how far I can go on stock. Probably nothing to be honest, or maybe 20+ to core clock if lucky. Memory is not happy at all, if I give it 400, all games glitch like crazy and previous one could do 550 on memory somehow.

[LostVagueness]

Fair enough, the only thing you could do is play around with the voltage/ frequency curve and a custom fan profile to see if you can get it running a bit better, otherwise it would have to be and RMA if you're not happy. 2025 is still a good overclock on air though and unless you only have it for benching then I wouldn't worry about 50 odd MHz. If you can reduce the voltage and have the card running much cooler and quieter, it really won't have much impact on frame rates. Did you see what it boosts to at stock voltage and the 20+ core?

I'm about to find out now. It can run up to 2038 stable but temps are high.

[LostVagueness]

Yeah the temps do seem high for such a massive cooler, good luck with the results mate. I'm sure you already know but I would also find a way to lift your case up off the carpet, you'll be sucking in dust with it on the floor.

This is when everything is cranked up. +50 core + 220 mem 100Mv 150% power limit

Here's a reading from Afterburner:

Fan speed 72% here.

[LostVagueness]

That's a good result for stock voltage, I would have a go with custom fan profiles to try and get the temps down, unfortunately these chips do run quite hot. What are your ambient temps?

This is not stock. This is all cracked up to max. Lmao, double check.

This is stock. Here's with just +20 to core clock. Temps are 76c.

Are you sure the voltage you are adding is +100 mv, the scale on the voltage is a % so you are just applying 100% voltage on the max overclock. I may be totally wrong but that's just how I read it. Have you done the registry tweaks to unlock the voltage?

Yes. Slider is at 100 as you can see in the previous screenshots. Voltage would otherwise be locked dude. 100Mv 150% power limit and +50 to core clock
