GPU Temp at 78-80C

[Camel]

I have a RTX 3080 TI running this on Ultra 1440p, should I be worried at all?

[M0P3PEANUTS]

no, thats a good temp but it is making you scared try cleaning your case or the components themselves.

a 3060 ti at 80C at 1440p? that's normal, tbh. that's in the ballpark of the ps5.

limit the framrate

Thanks to Nvidia adding the shroud of a 3080 to a GPU with the performance of a 3090, the ti versions run pretty hot (depending also on your partner version).

78-80, though, is absolutely not worrisome.

And i thought that modern GPU's have an adjustable Fan.

Thats normal. If you want to lower it, clean your pc or Improve your airflow if its bad. But the easiest way do undervolt. It will lower your gpu power use and temps without loosing any performance.

You can reduce the temps by a few degrees by...

1. Ensuring ample airflow inside your case. Have more intake fans than exhaust to have a positive pressure difference.

2. Increase fan speed.. have the fans for the case and GPU run at 100% and see what the temps are when gaming.

3. Reduce your ambient temperature in the room by running an AC if you live in a place that gets very hot in summer.

As long as the GPU temp is below 80C you are fine. I have a 4090 FE and temps go up to 77/78 at times which varies depending on the game but 70s on load for the GPU is definitely normal.

80c? I wouldn't worry with temps like that.

4080 at 90c + playing extras after main game , yet low 80s in main game ?
