Question About Hotspot Temperature Alert?
Question About Hotspot Temperature Alert?
I have a XFX Speedster MERC319 Radeon RX 6750XT Black GPU.
What I think is happening is the hotspot temperature alarm triggers whenever my hotspot hits 80 degrees, which is really high for this card and causes frustration. At 80 degrees for this card it’s far too low compared to the 110-degree thermal throttle. In certain games I often reach 80 degrees, with the highest ever being around 86 degrees, a difference of about 20 degrees. It doesn’t seem like the card is throttling. There’s no reason the alarm is sounding at these temperatures. I’ve tried repasting the GPU and swapping pads, but it didn’t really help much.
In short, anyone know how to disable or adjust this hotspot temperature alarm for this card? I haven’t found any settings to change it.
Ensure you have a program that tracks GPU temperatures and triggers alerts. It's recommended to explore such software and its settings.
You have AMD Adrenalin and HWMonitor set up, yet the alarm still triggers without them.
There is no visual alert, no notification, no pop-up—just silence on Windows. The sound originates from the GPU (possibly the motherboard) and seems to appear whenever my hotspot hits 80°C. As mentioned before, it doesn't appear to be software-based, but rather hardware-related. I've checked the BIOS and found nothing about alarms. I'm struggling to figure this out.
verify all temperatures, cpu, and motherboard status
update BIOS for your motherboard
are there any LED errors displayed on the motherboard?
hdds are connected and functioning properly?
optical drive is connected and operational?
upload a video of the sound to any platform and include the link here
GPU lacks a built-in speaker that emits beeps or alerts. Even many MoBos models don’t have speakers, though adding one is possible if the device supports internal speaker pins. I concur with this point; having a video of the alarm would be useful. Consider uploading it to YouTube or another similar platform. Additionally, verify the source of the sound by opening your PC case side panel and listening closely to pinpoint where the alarm originates.
