[SOLVED] Any information on general thermals on Zotac GTX 1070 ti mini

[giorzyg]

I am hoping to get a new Zotac 1070 Ti to pair with my I5 8400 just asking on thermals and if it is a good match. I found it on newegg for about 400 dollars and thinking to buy it around black friday.

How your system handles the heat would depend on your case and fans, the smaller cards will run hotter on their own. For being a good match, yes it's fine with that CPU.

I have the same setup as you in an matx case (masterbox lite 3.1 tg) and I would say the thermals are okayish but not the best. You’ve only got two fans instead of other 1070tis that usually have three. Before tweaking anything I’d be getting about 78-80 degrees Celsius with high usage and around 40 on idle. Now I undervolt and underclock it by a little bit to get the temps down to 65-70. Performance is almost as good so there’s really no point in not undervolting imo. The temps may be because it’s in an matx case and the fact that I live in a tropical country tho so your experience may vary
