For the last 24 hours I have been unable to get my GPU temp below 37 degrees Celsius (19 degrees above ambient), running the fan at 70%. When idling with zero activity on the card or my system, with the fan at 0% (It doesn't automatically switch on), the GPU sits at 48 degrees Celcius (30 degrees above ambient).
I've cleaned out the system (The case temp is 25 degrees, and CPU is 31 degrees - Both of which are higher than normal - perhaps they are suffering the effects of the excessive GPU temps?)
I'm hesitant to RMA the card unless I absolutely have to as the warranty process will take 6 - 12 weeks here. I don't have a spare card and I depend on the PC for all my work, so I can't be without it for more than 24 - 48 hours.
The Card is a ASUS GTX 980 Ti, about 14 months old.
Any suggestions?
