    Question GPU not being utilised

    oops my bad, I have nvidia experience on my pc so I think it defaulted my game settings to something ridiculous like max quality slider in the optimise game tab(32 render distance chunks or something). I think i was just assuming that the intergrated was some how being used since my cpu was...

    Question GPU not being utilised

    Hello, only in minecraft my graphics card has zero utilisation according to rivertuner and the fps is around 60 due to it using the intergrated intel 630 gpu. One thing to note is that when i first upgraded my gpu, i did test mincraft and it was using the dedicated gpu. Maybe driver issue? My...

    Question Is this already an optimal fan configuration?

    passively? i guess they are underneath the shroud below the cable management grommet where the gpu's pcie cable comes from. they run mostly idle as I have a m.2 mounted above the gpu, the nvme is 40c (cant see in picture). Maybe the gpu is running 'hot' as on idle I have a fan stop curve which...

This this fan config optimal because when i play games on pc, although the cpu remain relatively cool, around 58-62 degrees celcius, the gpu can reach up to 70 degrees celcius. as i mentioned above, the front panel is pretty...

    Question Help with GTX 1660 fan curve

    Ty for the detailed response, I'll have a go at your recommended settings tomorrow morning. I'm pretty sure my fan speed can go lower, probably the force fan update option you talked about was causing the issue.

    Question Help with GTX 1660 fan curve

    Hi, I had created a custom fan curve for my gpu fans so that when the temp falls below 50, the card will stop the fans. i think passively cooled the gpu runs around 52-4 celcius with no heavy load. Some reason, when the temperature is between 49-50, the fans would ramp up and switch off and...

    [SOLVED] does my 1050ti gpu just have bad bearings or something?

    My Msi Gtx 1050ti 4GT OC V1 on 45 % fan speed (the lowest) has a noticeable whirring/ sort of hissing noise. If i increase the fan speed to 80% It becomes quite loud and 100% very loud. Is this just the case of my gpu fan bearings wearing down over the 3 or so years of use? Since the noise is...

    [SOLVED] Msi Gtx 1050ti coil whine

    My graphics card outputs a fairly audible coil whine noise on idle from around a meter away. What would be the cause of this? poor quality components on the card? or just age? My psu is the super flower leadex III 550 watt gold. I'm certain that I had the same amount amount of coil whine with...
