Yeah, that's probably a bad board.

Still wondering what went wrong earlier and corrected itself just like that

UPDATE: I took out a drive from my own PC and connected it in place of the WD drive that was causing problems. My drive was working fine on the system. I also switched ports with the Toshiba drive that was working fine with my own working drive and all drives were working fine. I connected the...

Hey guys. Seeing that I've had really good help from this forum here I am again with another issue. This time it's my daughter's computer. So she was using a Dell laptop up until a few days ago when it suddenly died on her. I wouldn't say suddenly since it was having trouble for a while...

Sorry, I had a bit of personal matter and wasn't around to get on here. I was able to solve the problem. It was apparently driver related. I did a complete uninstall using DDU and turns out there was also some NVIDIA files present in the system from way before. After removing all traces of...

That's the thing. I've ran an Aida64 stress on the CPU and GPU together and it ran fine for 15 minutes. It's just a problem when launching the games. Temps for CPU under load are: 75c MAX Temps for GPU under load are: 88c MAX In an instance the game does start, the max temp of the CPU during...

So I recently got a new GPU. RX570 - Asus Strix 4GB - Now, the problem I am having also happened once before a few months ago on my old GPU as well. It fixed itself though and now it's back. What's happening is that when I launch a game, the computer just Freezes and the screen goes black and...

Obviously it will feel hot at 77-78. That temp is normal for this GPU. Basically the temp is normal for any GPU to be honest. Don't worry about the temps. Worry about that non-branded cheap PSU. You're saving a few dollars but that might end up costing hundreds. Better spend $60-$80 on a PSU...

Oh wow. I didn't even pay attention to the PSU he mentioned. The card temps are perfect. The burning smell is probably coming from the PSU when under load.

I did call the shop and talked to the guy, He says its normal for the card too. According to him 85c is normal and hitting the 88 mark in there is nothing to worry about. He did say if I'm not satisfied I can get it replaced within 10 days.

What's your temp that it's reaching? You didn't mention the temp. Under 80c its nothing to worry about.

So you really think that 88c temp is not shocking? I mean I can just keep using it if this temp is common around this card.

It's pre-owned. I got it from a trusty shop though. They will replace it without question if I go back but its like an hour's drive for me and I don't wanna go back for no reason. So thought I'd ask here before making the trip.

Same overheating issue with me. Asus Strix RX570 4GB that goes 88c under 100% load. Idle temp is 34c. System is DELL T3500 with X5690 @ 3.4Ghz. Airflow is 2 140mm fans on the front and 2 80mm fans on the back for outflow. Dell PSU 525W 80+Silver. Just got the card today.

It's the stock Dell PSU 525W 80+Silver
