My RX 5700XT operates near 70C during heavy use, but Afterburner displays a maximum of 90C. Decide which temperature to aim for—70C offers more headroom for overclocking, or should you target 90C and reduce the load significantly?

Navi notes two readings and confirms both are accurate depending on the location within the die. The standard reading is the lower one, while the higher value refers to the 'HotSpot' near the center of the hottest area. If a program doesn’t display both simultaneously, it’s hard to determine the exact spot. Use GPU-z for simultaneous reporting in its Sensors section.
