New MSI Ventus RTX 4060 Ti is experiencing overheating reaching up to 80°C
I ran a test and it recorded 78 degrees during gameplay, just before the benchmark began. The result showed "test was cancelled by the user." Could the GPU fan be damaged due to the wire from the PC case fan? One exhaust was provided, and the wire came into contact with the GPU for about three hours before I resolved it.
That shouldn't affect the outcome, but testing with the side panel removed could help identify if airflow is the problem.
Unknown. The CPU reports a maximum of 78. I repeated the test by accessing the side panel, and the score rose only to 12,416—slightly higher than the previous 12,383. The image shows the result after opening the side panel.
Consider downloading GPU-Z or Hwinfo64 and retrying. 117C appears unusual. It also seems confusing why the system doesn't shut down automatically at that moment.
Consider creating your own fan curve settings to maintain optimal temperatures. FanControl is a suitable tool for this purpose.
Looking for a trusted YouTube tutorial? A reliable option is "How to Build a Heatpipe" by Electronics Lab. It’s well-reviewed and covers the basics clearly. Regarding safety, ensure you follow all instructions carefully. As for the card, its design appears different from copper—check the manufacturer’s specs to confirm authenticity.
Copper tends to corrode and oxidize quickly, so it’s often coated with nickel or zinc. Here, we apply a zinc plating for jobs that require weather resistance in my projects. We handle 40kV and 2000A electrical systems. It’s completely safe, though it might run a bit hot—this is manageable. This video looks solid, uses MSI afterburner, and it’s a good fit if you’re interested in that setup. Regarding fan curves, there’s no universal ideal shape; they vary based on your needs. If you’re okay with higher noise levels, you can crank it up for strong cooling, but you can also lower it. Factors like ambient temperature matter—computers note this. For instance, in a freezing environment you probably don’t need to push fans as hard as in a hot desert setting. Experiment with settings to find the balance between noise and performance. Also, keep in mind that current speeds are often elevated; aim for a speed that’s just a touch higher than shown, so you’re set for your expected temps.
You adjusted the fan curve and noticed the temperature stays low. I plan to purchase a new fan and fit it into my PC case. Since I haven’t focused much on PC cases, RGB lighting, or liquid cooling before, I’ll need to look into those topics further. A separate post will cover it. Thanks for the help!
