Hello guys, I want to know that is  there any possibilities of temping up the gpu because of underrated PSU (maybe my PSU don't capable enough to supply desired power to the gpu)
Because my gpu runs hot (around 80 plus when I am gaming). I am using gtx 1060 3gb (blower style card).
Thnks

That's not how the laws of physics works... heat energy is just the energy from your PSU, but different.

 

It's normal with a blower fan. What PSU do you have too?

I have crank up fan speed to 100pc. I am using Thermaltake litepower 450 watt (its a non 80 plus, maybe).

Is it a blower fan or not?

 

I would replace the PSU either way though.

You have enough wattage. it’s a blower card, so thermals will be high.

 

The PSU is garbage, so I would replace it with a Corsair CX550M

TBQH, the PSU aint broke so dont fix it.

Unless the PSU is a bad unit. Then definitely replace it. Because if it breaks, the PC might as well.

I have had good and bad PSU's fail catastrophically and take stuff with them.

 

As a percentage of units I have installed, the cheap but not 100% chinese crap units have the best track record.  Even including the ones with "bad" designs, just dont overload them.

Uh... no.

 

A good PSU, like a SeaSonic FOCUS shouldn’t fail unless it’s defective. OPP prevents damage during overloads

 

A bad PSU will fail and possibly damage parts. Or, it will affect overclocking, or the bad ripple alone will kill the rest of your system.

 

Personal experience means nothing. Only professional reviews matter.

We can't suggest any units until we know your region, stores available to you and PSUs in stock they have, with their prices.

Personal experience counts for quite a bit when it is a sizeable sample size and time period.  Once you get out of the Chinese "lead weight added to make the unit feel heavier" PSU's, the quality difference is not large enough to justify paying extra on a 450w unit.

 

80+ units in systems that I maintain over the last 20 years.  About 90% of the very basic group regulated units from various manufacturers are still going 10 years in.  Hell, nearly all of the ones that are getting close to 20 years old still function, though they have been decomissioned now.

I would not use a 20 year old PSU. Terrible ripple and likely lacks modern protections. So no, experience counts for nothing, because all you can say that it turns on. You don’t know the things performance. What its ripple is on all rails, voltage regulation, hold up times, when its protections kick in, if it has any.

 

Read the guides. They’ll show you how important these things are.
