Stock GPU overheating?
Stock GPU overheating?
Hi guys,
I was checking overclocking my GPU using MSI Afterburner and Kombustor. After a short test at default settings, I noticed my GPU temperatures were elevated. I ran it for roughly 10 minutes and the peak temperature reached 84°C. The fan speeds were set to auto, and they were spinning properly since I could hear them when manually increased to 100%.

My Corsair case fan is part of the intake, while the other three fans are stock units from an NZXT Phantom 410 case. There are two 120mm intake fans at the front, one 120mm exhaust fan at the back, and one 140mm exhaust fan at the top. All case fans are configured to full speed through BIOS.
You sound like you have plenty of air coming through your case... Your temps are high on the gpu but not outside of acceptable limits... However, this seems really high...
You might consider putting some better thermal paste on the GPU. It might have bad contact... Maybe see if any screws are loose and the heatsink is not making good contact. It's really odd that it should run that hot on stock...

How are your idle and in-game GPU temperatures?
