FPS raises GPU temperature :/

[diegomet]

I've been playing for a few days and I've noticed that my GPU temperature has reached 70ºC or more, which in a game like DbD doesn't seem normal to me considering that I have a 3070. So testing settings, uninstalling and installing the game I realized that if I increase the fps of the settings from 60 to 120 the game goes up about 10-15ºC, being in ultra or low quality it doesn't matter. Does anyone know any solution, or I just have to wait for Behaviour to fix it? ._.

Raising FPS will always drive the temps up. Seems fairly normal but the other thing you could possibly do is try another game and see if the temps do the same thing. My partners GPU temps jump like crazy if we go from 60 to 120. So I found capping at 100 was a perfect balance.

its fine at that temp while gaming as long as you don't go over like 85 non stop your fine gpu is built to withstand heat

You increased the FPS from 60 to 120 and got a temperature increase of 10 degrees, that's normal, what do you expect? The game uses the Unreal 5 engine.

Going from 60 FPS to 120 FPS means that your GPU is having to work harder to keep up with the demand. Its the same thing as when you have a room fan set to low and then you suddenly crank it up to high, your going to notice a performance difference sure, but the fan itself needs to spin faster to create the difference which uses up more energy.

There's nothing to be fixed, 70ºC is a normal temperature. Start worrying when it gets to 80.
