Ha ha, seems last summer I was concerned for nothing, still gaming happily on my old faithful RX VEGA 64 from ASUS...

Runs smooth and I can't complain anymore, actually a good thing since I'm waiting for an actual upgrade and if this GPU never fails all the better since then it can go and be installed into my other gaming pc.

Edit: just for reverence the gpu's temps did go back into the normal range during our winter season, so in actual fact there wasn't anything wrong with my hardware as I thought it.

You must have been a warm ambient temperature if it dropped in winter.

My RX 7900 XT hasn't had to deal with a hot summer yet... this year looks like it will. 36c on Saturday... summer not messing around this year. If my AIO can't keep everything cool, I give up.

You still on that same card Colif? has it been summer there yet?

Anyway our summer is nearly over now here and boy was it a hot one many days 40c ambient outside, and you might well know that I'm sticking with the stock cooling for my pc and no room air conditioner to help things cool down, It's been some adjustment but all is great while gaming in the heat, thinking this way is better.

I Guese it's only with the heavy hitter rated Watts gpu's and cpu's that you have to be cautious when moving from one location to another where the average ambient differs so much from where it was before as in my case.

Something that also caught my attention is the storage device temps. but since I had no issues whole summer season say it's also nothing to worry about.

Another thing, I forgot I wanted to post a reply with a quote so that you could see it (still works that way doesn't it?)
Anyway point being that I don't see a way to insert quote on an edit post, Am I missing something, was that ever possible?

Thats why the quote is below my post and not in my post...

Yes, my summer only has one month left, I have to guess you in Southern Hemisphere so its the same one. It still hasn't been as hot here as you got. I am happy with that. Think max we got might have been that 36c day I mentioned. GPU got a little warm in that time but its been fine. Some parts of Australia are 40c all summer, every day. I guess you get used to it and think the temps you get are normal.

Quotes work, have you ever done one before on this software? Do you see the insert quotes button under a post?
for example

It should have the quote in there.

If you hit Reply it will create a new post with the quote in it... but you can do steps below to get it into another post

The forum can be dumb about it if you decide to edit a post after you have posted it, and try to put a quote in as it will instead put the quote in a post below. What I do there is:

1. click on the 3 dots/.hamburger menu on the far right of the menu line in a text box (above is a text box)
2. choose toggle BBCode
3. Cut the code for the quote out of the box
4. Paste it into my current post I am editing

Note if you toggle BBCode off to see quote codes to copy them, you need to toggle it back on again as forums remember what you set. it makes the text box look different.

I think its a "feature" of the forum software
