Hello everyone
I buying recently a new PC with a GIGABYTE Vega 64. After 7 years with my old friend GTX 660 TI so I'm not too familiar with high-end GPUs.
Im already aware of the bad review of this GPU but for 250 bucks this was a pretty good deal, and surprisingly it's not as bad as I expected, It still looks like a new old stock.
In stock setting with no UV/OC (Maybe later)
In idle (Freq.Proc/Freq.Mem 27mhz/167mhz 3W) with 900 rpm fan the temp was pretty low 25-26c
Looking a video (Freq.Proc/Freq.Mem 55-80mhz/167-500mhz 4-8W) with 900 rpm fan the temp 26-28c
In games that are not very demanding like Code Vein with vsync at 75 FPS (Freq.Proc/Freq.Mem 1080mhz/800mhz 45-80w) with 900 rpm the temp was pretty reasonable (a guess ?) 44-50c
In games that are really demanding like the witcher 3 highest setting with no vsync or locker FPS (Freq.Proc/Freq.Mem 1580-1630mhz/945mhz 215-244W)
But the temp seem pretty high to me in this scenario and I can hear coil whine when the GPU goes up to more than 100 watts but it's quite acceptable but the higher the GPU goes up in the watts the more horrible the coil whine is but is not the problem and that don't bother me that much.
The problem (or not?) GPU temp rise to 80-85c it seem pretty high to me and the thermal paste doesn't seem to be doing its job properly (?) with 1700-1850 rpm Fan the sound is pretty reasonable i can rise up the fan to 3500-4000 rpm max but the sound is too loud.
So I intended to dismantle the GPU and change the thermal paste with grizzly kryonaut for that I looked on the internet for a tutorial to dismantle a GIGABYTE vega 64 but without success, I could still see that the GPU has thermal pads and I don't intend to go that far and change them but I'm scared of Removed the thermal pads which seems quite fragile or something else since I have nothing to refer.
hence my post here to look for people who have this GPU and know the best way to access the processor without too much mishandling the thermal pads or the GPU itself, if it's a good idea to do this or if I should leave it like this and not take any risks
thank you to the people who will take the time to read and help me
(Sorry for my bad english)
