Heylo fellow PC enthusiasts!
I just recently purchased myself a new EVGA RTX 3080 FTW 3 UTLRA.
Other specs:
Ryzen 5 5600x
32gb G.Skill TridentZ RAM
ASUS ROG STRIX x570-e
850w Thermaltake PSU
1x m.2 2tb SSD
1x HDD 2tb
I run 2 monitors, and JUST got a new one, ASUS TUF 1440p, 165hz, 1ms response, curved, 27"
Other monitor is a junk Dell 27 inch regular from a very long time ago.
Problem: I run Precision X1 on my secondary monitor to monitor temps/etc of my PC.
Under "Target" the power is maxed at 100, and it runs around 95%+ while gaming on COD ultra settings.
I keep my fans on 100% (roughly 3k RPM)
My concern: Is my PSU keeping up with the build, is there something I can do to fix this? I'm scared my PSU will catch fire during a gaming session.
Note: Is this percentage gauge on Precision X1 the PSU load, or is this the power draw of the GPU.. I'm confused.
