GPU Really high temperature. 3070TI. (Founder)
The poor thing reaches 80-83 c° in the campaing map.

No other (Recent) game makes her scream in pain like this.

Is that fine? Is that bad?

When should i worry? 90c°?

Playing in 1080p 120fps. "High" quality settings.

80 really isn't high, don't worry about it. 90 is the concern point for pretty much any GPU, they're designed to run at anything up to that, it's fine.

If you're really bothered limit the fps, you don't need 120 or reduce the GPUs power

turn off twitch chat when you watch dota 2 .

If you're writing this, you're already worried (and you're right to...)

Cooling on 30 series card is not great at all, so you got to either limit FPS or power usage to reduce that
My RX7900XTX is max 65C, but the cooler is just ginormous ^^

Solution to all with heating problems on laptop just go to amazon and order a cooling fan Trust they work way too good

Yeah the game is poorly made, this happens to all 3070 owners.

I appreciate these posts about PC and laptop thermals these days, it shows people are paying attention to their hardware's performance and health.

With that said, without your full specs and ambient temp it is impossible to tell you if you are in good shape or not. Ditto for fan speeds under load. Chassis size, cooling potential and ambient temp all matter. This game isn't the most demanding but it's up there. 83 might be a bit high for a 3070 but could be perfectly normal with your chassis and ambient temp.

Chassi is a corsair 5000D and ambient is about 35c°.

Limiting the FPS to 60 helped a >BIG< deal.

Been playing for a about 45 minutes and was always between 60-65c°

Phew, not burning my card today.

Thanks for the FPS suggestion.

Same card here, reducing fps in nvidia cp helped.

Rather the 3070 is poorly made :steammocking:

Well its not an issue with any other game and owners of this card come here regularly to complain about the heat issue.

3070Ti FE have notoriously high thermals when on high load

Then not all games push the GPU at full, but TWW does

The main thing people people don't understand.

It's not an issue with any other game because the other games you're playing aren't pushing your GPU to the same extent that this one does. And before you mention that you play games that look miles ahead of this one, power draw is only tangentially related to a game's visuals.
