Hi everyone,

I have a problem with my gigabyte rtx 2060 oc, my card was working over 76C then I decided to reapply the thermal paste. I used zalman stg2, then my gpu is working higher temprature like 79C-80C.

I think the memories is working too hot because, in gpu-z which is using gpu memory less and using gpu 100%, my card's max temp is 62C. But in games, the card is 79-80C

Do you have any idea?

Thank you
 
Solution
Make sure you didn't apply to much, which actually insulates the core, preventing the heat from getting away as it should. The Gigabyte is a very cool card, but a lot of it does depend on the temperatures inside the case.
