gtx 1060 overheating?!

[Proch]

so i have a msi armor gtx 10603gb and ive noticed that when i play games such as csgo or fortnite or basically any game my temps would go up to 83c and ive owned a asus gtx 1060 back when it first launched and temps never reached 80c so whats causing the problem

Its an armor card, theyre pretty terrible. On that note, are the fans turned up? Can you turn them up more? Case airflow? Is it throttling? 

[Synawke]

yeah we need to know more info like your fan curve, case, airflow setup

well fan curve is set to factory settings or default 
idk about the airflow and the case is xigmatek smthn but ive never had issues as i said i owned a asus dual gtx 1060 and never saw those temps

Get yourself MSI Afterburner and change the fan curve a bit to comfortable noise and temp level's.

 

After that it should be better.

 

If you don't know how to do it just google it and look at a video its easy done after that. =)

How much did you change the settings ?

 

How high are we talking ?

 

And did you watch a video about it ?

 

Its kinda long to explain in writing for me english isn't my main language.

 

This is a video i found usable and easy to follow.

i saw the video and did the exact same setup opened msi kombustor to test didnt notice a difference maybe like a 3c change

How much Fan speed did you set at what temps?

 

And if the temp is still to hot maybe set it to let's say 80% speed at 80C and if that is to loud try and reduce it by 5% steps and see how your temps are. Scratch that just checked the complete settings he has and its at 80% speed with 80C

 

i feel safe with temps of around 65-70c max on my GPU under full load.

What kind of CPU do you have and Cooler, what are the temps for that ?

You have to make sure both the left side and the auto button to the right of the fan slider are highlighted for your custom fan curve to take effect.

oh and 60c max under load

By under load do you mean in a stress test like 3dmark firestrike, timespy, or unigine heaven, superposition, etc?

Because that's what we mean by under load.

These put a 100% load on your GPU and that's how to find your max temp not just regular gaming.

Just making sure you know that

 

Anyways, I'm not sure about how your fan curve won't let you turn off the fans under a certain temp.

I've never experienced that with afterburner.

Maybe someone else can chime in...

 

Actually, if I were you, I'd start a new forum post asking that because it's an entirely different question and you'd likely get an answer a lot quicker

yea i was testing the gpu using fire strike and msi kombustor but still temps are seriously high even with the updated fan curve

Don't use kombustor.

It's way too aggressive for just gamers.

It's more meant for professional level stuff.

 

Firestrike is good though.

Stick with that one.

Though you should use Heaven 4.0 or superposition for longer term tests.

After you find your perfect overclock if you are overclocking, you need to do a 3 hour test in something like that to make sure it's stable.

 

60 degrees under max load is fantastic.

That's not high at all.
