Hi all, sorry if this is very long, I want to be as thorough in my explanation as possible. I will post specs at the bottom.
Recently I've been playing division 2 a hell of alot, I've been playing it at mostly high settings on 2560x1440 (I used MSI AB OC scanner, using the power-frequency curve increased base clock around 239mhz at 1025mV average), but realised that I was only getting 30fps MAX, found out this was due to the refresh rate (RR) capability of my cable [DVI-D TO HDMI]; (I moved onto a displayport to HDMI 4k cable, which didn't work, see my only other thread for details) so I moved onto using a hdmi cable to get my RR up to 60hz, this allowed me to average 54fps on the settings previously mentioned.
After a week or so I started to get black screening after about 10-20 minutes of playing, so I reverted back to my original cable and reduced my resolution to 1920x1080 @60hz, but the black screening persisted, but alot more intermittently (it sometimes wouldn't happen for an hour, sometimes it would be 5 minutes) and even even when re-running MSI AB OCscanner.
Because of this I reduce my settings down to mostly medium and removed the OC from my graphics card and this had seemed to stop the black screening, I was now left with a very minor stuttering whilst playing (like 10ms every 5 secs), to counter this I used MSI AB to raise my core clock just 100mhz and Vram by 20mhz (previously untouched) and I've disabled Uplay overlay, that seems to have fixed the stuttering.
Now the actual reason I'm posting:
After 3 hours of playing I've noticed my GPU temp is so much higher than it was before; on high 2560x1440 30hz settings my GPU almost never hit 60c, and would idle between 10-15c. Now I'm on mostly medium settings 1920x1080 @60hz and my GPU has hit 84*c and I'm a little concerned because I was under the impression I've been stressing the card alot less on these settings.
Boost clock with curve hit 2103mhz max
Boost clock with 100hz hit 1974mhz max
My specs are as follows: MSI b350 gaming plus MOBO, GTX1060 6GB (with kraken G12 mount & NZXT AIO liquid cooler), Ryzen 5 1600 (coolermaster AIO liquid cooler) 32GB DDR4 2400mhz, aerocool 750w bronze+ PSU.
All radiators have push/pull fan setup and the case has the side panel removed.
Pc is about 2 1/2 years old, GPU was converted to liquid about 6 months ago because stock cooler was hitting 89*c with no OC.
Any help or advice is greatly appreciated.
