No it need to get hotter, so hot it blows up... Of course that fine, if you're hitting a 100C then that be a problem.

thank you very much!

you are now save from shrinking.
I would not set fan to 0 rpm.
Its not only the processor that needs cooling, but if you set rpm to 0, its the only thing that determines if the fan cools.

It's not unusual for modern videocards to have the fans only come in when getting to about 50-55°C.

I had one that had such a "feature" too. It was annoying. And as i mentioned it did not make much sense. In regards to sound and best cooling in your interest.

I just checked mine and i think 55°c sounds kinda hot.

What brand do you use? Gigabyte?

It's pretty warm for a 4080.
Mine has very consistently idled at 39C. No fan.

im new to fan control and im palying around with it. just wanted to know if idle temp on 55 is ok for now with fans of till i get the settings right.
while gaming on 120fps+ on 2k im never over 65.
as far as i could see while googling. idle temp is just fine on 55 as long as its cool while gaming.

I meant the gpu processor

Is the 4080 under 100% load that never goes above 65c?
What % speed fan speed or RPM is fans spinning while under 100% load on GPU?

Hmm, should be good.

Your tower/case could have less fans available/installed for air circulation.

Have you also plugged in each pin to your GPU?

Does your GPU and also its fans have enough free space to other hardware components? 10 cm minimum.

Is your case freed of any dust?

Such a high-end GPU of today should be not higher than 50 °C being in idle.

However, dont worry.

If your CPU and GPU are "below" 90 - 95 °C when in useage, thats fine and even intended.

Maybe you have also setup your dedicated GPU to use on desktop, your integrated GPU (Intel UHD for example) should handle it instead. The dedicated NVIDIA GPU just for games ..

The default fan curve of an ASUS TUF 3070Ti is set to the fans not setting in until 55°C.
Most likely a similar fan curve with a TUF 4080.
