So, i got a MSI Aero 1080 8gb on Christmas. When i play Fortnite my gpu usage goes up to 90% no matter what which is okay. But it’s always at 90C when I’m playinf Fortnite and when it goes up to 92 my gpu fan goes to 5400 rpm but it’s usually only at 1480. When it goes up to 92 the GPU usage goes down to around 80%. Thanks in advance :)

Did not know you could measure GPU fan speed in RPM.

Your card is a blower style and is common to have high temperature.

how's your case airflow?

hmm, ive got two of those cards and mine only go to about 3300rpm as measured in Afterburner. Blower cards will run about 10c higher than ones with aftermarket coolers on them. That seems like some pretty serious throttling. I'd grab GPUz and let it run in the background and itll let you know why and what its doing. Afterburner is great too and is what I use to monitor everything.

Maybe is that cheap plastic cooler. Turn up the fans or check tim.

Idk if I'd trust hue for monitoring, compared to what HwMonitor/Afterburner/OpenHwMonitor/Gpuz are reporting. Unless the models shipped at christmas came with blowers capable of another 2100rpm not sure what to say. 

In any case it seems like you need to look at undervolting either on a custom curve via Ctrl-F in afterburner or lowering your power limit and increasing your clock speeds to compensate, this essentially will force your cards to run leaner at their given speeds/voltage curve. Not to mention, I'd consider changing the pretty conservative fan curve.

GPUZ says 5400 rpms aswell

One fan in this case would drown out both cards at 60%. Only reason one runs so hot is because of evga's bios when they slapped on the ax cooler. 

 

But I also have airflow in the case, which could be your issue, I know on some cards the fan speed is limited, what is your percentage rather than rpm?

Airflow isn't a problem in my case... It's been fine with a gtx 1060, and even fine since I got my 1080... but at the end of january my gpu did something which idk... When I set my fan speed to 100% on MSI afterburner, the rpm is 3300. So it would be li ke 163%

Hmm, reinstall maybe? I might try emailing MSI to see if they have a whitesheet for the MSI Aero. What really bugs me about these cards is the damn DVI connector blocks like half the exhaust port making it that much harder for the card to stay cool. This card seriously needs to not have anything back there, and who is still using DVI on a 1080?

I still use it. Better to buy a new card then 3 new monitors.  Doubt it creates backpresure enough to effect temps. It is a blower after all.

I use the DVI for my 144hz since I don't have a HDMI 2.1 haha
