Question GPU temp not changing.

[makecim]

EDIT: I FIXED MY PROBLEM BY CHANGING THE GPU THERMAL PASTE.

Hi,

I juste bought an RTX ZODIAC 3080 GPU.
I have a problems with temps, my GPU goes 85°C instantly when i start a game, even in the main menu the temp goes high.
But the problème is: even when i set fans to the maximum speed, the temp is not cooled and it stay around 85°C and AT 20% speed its exactly the same.
I think maybe the thermal paste is gone (its a second hand GPU), what do you guys think ? The fans are spinning im sure about it.

Thanks for Reading and helping me.

What is the case?

What is the hot spot reading at when the gpu core is at 85C? FYI, hot spot can go up to 110C+, higher than the gpu core's limit of 91C.

even in the main menu the temp goes high.

Game menus go balls to the wall on fps if there isn't a limit in place, so that's not unusual, but it's not a good thing either. [Higher odds of encountering coil whine(audibly annoying, nothing more), and the gpu's voltage regulator doesn't care for the current draw from it either.]
I'd suggest settings fps limits for games that do that.

-Gpu die application is a bit more selective with paste, unlike cpu. They may have used a paste that was too runny in texture.
-Depending on the case, there might not be enough air being fed to the gpu, or exhaust drawn away from it.
-You could've bought someone's repad gone wrong, which they decided to make someone else's problem; it gets expensive fast.

Bro im so happy!!! I changed the thermal past (it was very dry) and the card looks like it work normal!!!! So happy🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
