gpu at 92c

[JAXSSIDER]

My gpu frequently spikes up to 92c which keep in mind i have a 3070ti is this bad

[Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...]

yeah? maybe time for a repaste?

~80C° is fine for gpus when under high load. 90C° not so much. The 3070ti should average around 80C° to 85C° when putting it under stress.

Whats the average ambient temperature?
Are you running an overclock?
Do you use the standard fan curves?
What case do you have, how is the airflow?
When did you have its thermal paste last replaced?
Which brand 3070ti is it? Founders edition really just have high temps
Prebuilt pc or selfbuilt?

You rarely if ever need to reapply paste to a GPU.

Sounds like you need to check the airflow of your case and optimize your fan configuration.

Probably should check the fans on your 3070 TI and carefully remove any dust build-up from them. Don't use compressed air. Use a lint-free towel or something similar.

Depending on your motherboard, If you're really worried about temps you could set your fans to run at max.

My Asus board uses Qfan and i have my fans set to PWM, Same with my Gigabyte board.

Get better fans or turn your GPU fans only some GPU fans like and are set to default off and don't turn on untIl you apply the fan tuning settings in the adrenaline program

Also my RTX 4060 runs at 80°c when i run 3D mark, That's pushing it to its max, So I'm fine with it.

If in game, toggle V-sync on, if not in a game, then check for dust.

You can also undervolt it with MSI Afterburner. Look up how to do it as safe as possible, so you won't make a mistake and cause damage.

Computer hardware can handle up to 100°C
And what keeping it working is the fans extract the heat away from the hardware.
Depending on quality it can handle up to 120°C

Working hardware should stay at 85°C

It's not bad but it indicate it runs too hot as you have to add the temp of the room as well it is at 115°C

[talemore]

Before attempt to undervolt, underclock.

Undervolt comes with risks that you short the computer on power that you cause critical error. This is the same case with harddrive and similar devices who need constant power supply. SSD as example will simply refuse to keep working if the power supply isn't enough and will shorten its lifetime.

The reason why the lifetime is shorten is that with time your hardware will demand higher and higher amount of energy that it as well causes heat.

The more modern gpu's have bigger rads which is very extensive to get all dust out of. You should invest in an airgun that is rechargeable.

Also wipe the fans clean

Put on an aggressive fan curve

My air compressor does a good job, only thing is you gotta keep an eye on the oil level, it's a machine after all.

If using stock fans maybe replace with some with a higher CFM (cubic feet per minute).

Also look at each fans rpm, Some are 1000 but you can get up to 3000.

I've been thinking maybe noctua has some good aftermarket fans for my gpu

Air compressors are nice, I wish I had one haha. They are definitely more effective

I need oil as well?

Are we digging after gold in the circuits while at it?

These semiconductors are unhinged, they don't conduct any electricity.

GPU's, the "best" ones draw a lot of electricity and will produce heat. The last card I had from that manufacturer or brand needed to be around 70-90c to provide the performance that I paid for it, it lasted for 8 years....

Cards can be ruined by heat, cards can also be ruined by not running at the operating temps that it needs too (too cold or moisture gets in the box).

Seems normal to run around 80-90c for power up too and over 350-450W.

Could buy a lower watt gpu, but you might get stutters or inconsistency and may not be able to provide a good broadcasting experience for the people who find you entertaining.

Plus you get a tax credit in some places in the world, so you could buy a $1000-$2000 dollar gpu for the "work" (LOL).
