How to undervolt my 770

[Billy_Mays]

Since my system is crashing I know it's a power supply problem is there a way to undervolt my 770 without doing anything to the Vbios and it jumps from 324 to 3505 on idle and goes up to 75c is this a problem that I can fix with undervolting or what and without it jumping to 3500mhz it idles at 47-55c

afterburner?

 

but if you already know that it is a power supply problem - why not just get a proper power supply?

I don't want to get myself into a hole I would have to wait to get out of and I'm using MSI after burner fans set to 100% 24/7 memory is offset by -80 core is offset by -22

He's working on that. But he still needs to be able to game while he waits, and his only other alternative is a funky laptop with an i3 and iGPU.

I can game in my desktop with the Igpu but on not demanding games (Jotun) it dips below 30fps on low not often but the game is very challenging

From the GPU? My 1050 Ti can get loud if I turn the fans to 100%, but then I play with headphones, so it's not too bad.

Yeah but I had the side panel off and the power draw never left 70w but it spiked up to 80c

As long as it doesn't get to the 90s you should be good. I don't think 80 is that bad for an older GPU under load, is it?

But for a game that only needs 256mb for running it is a little hot

That is... Do you have good airflow in your case? You could turn all the fans up a little bit, then the GPU fans would spin down, and you may get lower noise overall.

The fan headers on my mobo are 3 pin all of my fans are 4 pin

Just drop the power limit. Does the exact same thing. Why are your fans maxed?

To keep the times down and it idles at 47c at no matter what fan speed

[Hunter259]

Temps you mean? Why do you need to keep temps down that much? Auto should do just fine.

Not really? That idle is pretty normal.

Oh ok I didn't know that but I've got a aggressive fan curve

I mean you said it didn't change no matter the fan speed. Unless your thermal paste is shot then the cooler can't get anymore heat into the air.

Ok when I getting back I'll try but would I break it by taking the cooler off?

I mean, no? Unless you are being a moron bending the board or scratching it. It's not like they are fused together.
