My graphic card overheated by this game

[NIXON KANE]

I use a Ryzen 3700+, 16GB RAM and a RTX 2070 Super, and with this game, the GPU vents go nuts. Playing at 1920x1200, all options to maximun, RT on and DX12, the heat of the GPU is too high. It's the only game that it happens.

Then turn the fan up and/or your settings down. Problem solved.

I dont think it was a question asking for help, it reads like he just wanted us to know this happens.

i8700, RTX 3080 Gamerock....goes with no problem at all. 64C at 30% fan. RT is on
Resolution 3840-1600. But before i played demo on 1080GTX and....no problem at all as well.

just set a frame limit in the options and ure fine

cant blame a game for your hardware overheating lol come on now.

Are you overclocking your GPU and/or processor?

[dest.]

Unless you're pushing over like 80C on the regular, you're fine. Like, it's totally fine for your PC to run at that temp. It'll automatically adjust clock speeds if it needs to keep cooler. Computer go brrrr and it's perfectly normal. Tell your friends.

Who are blaming the game? Not me. Only saying this is the only game that happens to me, and if somebody has the same problem. It's weird.

You should use some GPU benchmark software (Heaven, FurMark, 3D Mark etc)?
That way you can see how your card performs under constant 99% use, & then you can make a fan profile that will be able to deal with it when you get a game that like this that pushes it for long periods.

Just wanted to chime in that you're definitely not the only one having this issue. I'm also experiencing similar issues with unusual GPU temp behavior too. It's even noticeable sitting in the in-game menus.

Ray-Tracing seems to be the root of the problem. Unfortunately, it turns the game into an unoptimized mess (crazy temps, FPS dips, stuttering, etc.). Turn it off and the game should run much smoother and your GPU won't turn into a space heater.

For reference:

GPU - EVGA 2080 Super Hybrid FTW3 (factory overclock, AIO cooling, custom fan settings)
CPU - Intel i7-9700k (stock 3.60GHz, AIO cooling, custom fan settings)
RAM - 32GB @ 3200MHz
MONITOR - 2560x1440, 1440p @ 165Hz (with G-Sync)

I think that this hardware is outdated, you should purchase new computer.

Thanks for posting this! I'm seeing similar behavior and thought I was messing something up. Ray tracing seems to be the issue here as well. With ray tracing enabled, my RTX 2080 Ti is hitting 85 degrees and throttling to cope. Disabled ray tracing and set a frame rate limit in the GameUserSettings config file, and it's all good.

Kinda disappointing since I wanted to play through this with ray tracing enabled, but it is what it is.

The game is poorly optimized in general, and the ray tracing is no exception. The RTX implementation is very poor here.

Even with all the crap being slung around this thread, I've got a 1060, and it ran fine here. In fact, it did better on GPU than the original.

I have everything turned to the highest settings with a 1080p @ 60hz frame cap and ray tracing on.

No heat issues with a RTX 2080ti. The fans do not even spin up beyond normal desktop levels.

The prior suggestions regarding setting a frame rate limit may be applicable.
