Question High Thermals on RTX 2070 Super despite Undervoliting

[Mr_Drek]

So I was facing some temperature issues with my RTX 2070 Super (Gigabyte) last year. So I had decided to undervolt it to keep stable clock speeds and better thermals. I used MSI After burner and created a custom OC curve and the temperatures were find from then on with a stable clock speed at around 1815-1845 mhz. It is important to note that I was using Windows 10 at that point up until last week. Last week I decided to upgrade my OS to Windows 11. I used my older afterburner profile files and brought my OC Curve back. But the temperatures seems to be not stable as I now get higher temps at lower clock speed and lower voltages despite the underclock. Has anyone had similar issues like this after upgrading to Win 11?

 

[Mr_Drek]

It is important to note that I never had this issue on my previous OS. My temps barely crossed 70s and the underclock was pretty stable as I never faced any issues playing AAA multiple titles for hours without any issues up until I upgraded to Win 11.

I'm on Windows 11 with a RTX 2070 Super, though mine's a EVGA card. I've had no issues with thermals.

Did you touch the fan curve?

 

[Mr_Drek]

Nah. Left it at default

Nah. Left it at default

The fans will not spin up until it gets to a certain temperature, usually 50-55C.
