GTX 1080 running extremely hot
Go to solution
Solved by XxKINGxX40,
Well, replaced the thermal paste with Arctic Silver 5, and problem solved. 15°C reduced on average across the board. Also, the screws on the back were a bit loose, don't know if that contributed too.
That begs the question though... I've had the GPU for roughly 7 months. How does the thermal paste go bad that quick?
