4090 or fans ?getting hot and loud since update?

[Jimi™]

Sry but my GPU fan is getting very loud and i wanted to ask if somebody has an solution for that issue? it worked fine a week or more ago and after driver update or game update there must be something wrong...

You should do some stress test and see if there`s something that is out of the game (so can be problem with driver) or if is only with this game (you can use software to look temp and usage of gpu during test and game)
Surely this game is really bugged but it`s never bad to made some test to be sure.
Some time ago i had a problem with the 02/24 nvidia driver and after ddu and some test and rolldown driver i solve it

yeah it is only this game and i already downgraded it now and its still the same with an very old update tried also the new beta app but its the same its getting loud at the landing sequence.... or joinin an multiplayer game.

Use HWinfo64, if u have 2 monitors, try to see the sensor and the data while you play and do the same (reset the sensor data) and do some stress test for the GPU obv, if the data with the game are abnormal well...don`t start it until they made some fix, with a 4090 i would never take the risk to grill the GPU

Ok yep its more than abnormal... its like 97% using of the gpu and that is definitly not right but no idea if i can fix that via an driver update or downgrade -.-

Are you in 4k ultra settings? Because if you`re not then totally it`s not normal with a 4090

Limiting fps seem to work.... somehow

Basically your GPU is going to pump out all the frames it can if an application hasn't got a set FPS limit, meaning it'll use up more power, thus generating more heat and causing the fans to work harder to try and dissipate the heat, it also causes other system components to work more to keep up with the load.

Limiting FPS will cap the GPU's performance to a set level, meaning that once it reaches that framerate, it'll stay stable there and demand no more power, by consequence, other system components will also only have to work so hard to keep up with the GPU. Honestly, there's no point in having the GPU render more frames than your monitor's refresh rate, so capping it at that is usually a very good choice.
