    Question Safe GPU temps for a 3080

    I have an update to close this thread if anyone ends up with a similar issue :) This problem ended up as a 2-month-long warranty dispute between Amazon, the third party GPU seller, and me. I contacted the manufacturer (Gainward) support for information, here is a quote from their take on...

    Question Safe GPU temps for a 3080

    We are talking maximum mem junction temps at equilibrium under maximum gpu load, right ? If it was out of warranty, I would have gladly pulled it apart to swap the pads or even zip-tied a fan on top of the integrated ones to increase airflow. What I don't understand is, if the temps are to...

    Question Safe GPU temps for a 3080

    Room temp should be 26+-2°C Memory temps on the crashes I logged are between 89 and 98°C What I still can't figure out is why fine for a year (without air conditioning last summer) and can't run a game for more than twenty minutes now... Could it be just thermal paste degradation? Did I fry...

    Question Black screen under load on a previously working system ?

    By thermal limit I mean 83°C on the main temp sensor :) This thread is a prequel to this one, from when I was still wondering what caused my computer to black screen. I figured out the problem does come from the gpu after testing it in another computer and experiencing the same issue You are...

    Question Safe GPU temps for a 3080

    My bad for the video. It works in a private windows for me now. Thanks for taking the time to look into this btw Agreed this is probably not the right way to frame the question. A better one would be : Would a card in working order be able to function in the conditions that crash my current...

    Question Safe GPU temps for a 3080

    My bad, it should be unlisted now. Yeah, that would probably help, just like making a custom fan curve. Considering I bought it at 2x msrp and still is under warranty, I'd like to get a card that works as expected instead of fixing it myself :( What bothers me is that is used to work perfectly...

    Question Safe GPU temps for a 3080

    I've been using the card for one year. It crashes around these temps in my computer : Ryzen 7600x Asus B650E mb 32gigs of DDR5 at 6000Mhz A LHR RTX3080 Gainward “Phoenix” a 850W Corsair RMX psu My psu is 7 years old now. All my case fans are140mm Noctua and set above 1000rpm I had no issues...

    Question Safe GPU temps for a 3080

    Hi! My 3080 crashes after staying for a few minutes near its stock thermal limit (83°C). Here are the maximum temps it reached right before crashing: GPU temp: 80.9°C GPU junction temp: 92.0°C GPU hotspot: 93.9°C On a normal card, would these be considered safe ? Is my card defective?

    Question Black screen under load on a previously working system ?

    Hi! First time posting here! Nice to talk to you guys, I hope I’m not breaking any rules with this post! I’ve been experiencing what looks like GPU crashes for a few weeks now. I’ve been building my own computers for years, and this is the first time something I see something like this...
