2080 ti fe running at 85 degrees

[Bayonett Priest]

i was starting my journey with my 2080 ti with cod 4 but when i started cod all my aura sync rgb lights turn to orange as if it would warn me and then when i play zombies i hit 85 degrees(the letters for the temperature turned red in cod)! havent overclocked and play on a 1080p 60hrz monitor for now(new monitor is coming)! is it a faulty card?

my airflow shouldnt be a problem all around it it has open space to draw air in from outside!
Scared to play anything!
i have the 03231818 serial number!

That is pretty bad, the highest I've seen my Palit RTX 2080 Ti go is about 70C. I also have the VEGA 64 reference card and it hit 81C, highest I've seen (custom fan speed), so for your RTX 2080 Ti to hit 85C would be pretty vexing for you. Install MSI AB or the EGVA equivalent of it and rev up the fan speed and see where you land. The FE cards aren't known for good cooling, I dunno why it's so popular though. If you don't use your card, what's the point of getting it? It's still covered with warranty, so use it.

Repaste the card, undervolt, and ramp up the fan speed. That should solve any temp problems, don't try overclocking on the FE card (unless you undervolt), pretty sure that the memory is failing due to the memory being too close to power delivery components and overclocking is bringing that problem out.

Can high temps be a warranty reason?

Really depends on their return policy, if it fries due to heat, obviously you can tell them it malfunctioned and leave it at that. I recall having a HD3870 die on me, prolly due to heat but wasn't sure then (even now I dunno why it died). I took it to the local distributor and they sent it to Taiwan for RMA purposes, they replaced it with a new one. Sometimes, the manufacturer replaced the faulty item out of goodwill.

 

For example, not GPU related, but when one driver of my AKG K812 suddenly just stopped functioning, I'd to send it to the local distributor to have it repaired. I knew it was gonna cost me as the can was off warranty, I was asked to pay for shipping the can to Austria for AKG to verify and repair. A few weeks later, I was quite pleasantly surprised when I got a call from the local distributor, they informed me that AKG had decided to replace the faulty unit with a new one, and I don't have to pay anything other than the shipping cost that I'd already had paid for.....now, that's excellent PR, and AKG has me for a fan.....for life!

 

BTW, when I said use it, I meant the card.....NOT the warranty. If the card die on you due to heat, then RMA it. Do wait for more opinions on this though, I'm not sure what the return policy is in your neck of the woods.

Problem is, sometimes a sticker or two are pasted on the screws holding the HSF to the card, if torn or tampered with, they can flat out refuse any warranty.....not something I'd want happen to a 1000-1200USD card.

Increase fan speed in MSI afterburner to 100% and play for a bit. Report temps back.

sometimes my pc freezes up too like for 2 seconds and when i had black ops 4 open and discord was on top like i was not playing i was chatting with people and texting on discord there were weird flickers on the screen too

but could the freeze thing be because i have one monitor connected to the 2080 ti and the other to the motherboard cause the display to hdmi gets delivered to me at the moment cause i didnt know my 2 benq monitors doesnt have displayports only hdmi!

In the US it is illegal for them to actually enforce something like warranty stickers, and companies can really get in trouble for it now since right to repair and other such laws are being enforced much more strictly at this point. I'd love Nvidia to try that with me so I could get them slapped with a sizable fine from the government.

My card can go up to 70C in The Division but that's because there's another F.E 2080 Ti below it so yea. The one below is 58C constant. Temp should be better but bottom one sends heat to top one so ye.

980 ti is still very capable especially since you're only at 1080p, why did you get a 2080 ti if you're only at 1080p?
