[SOLVED] is 83C bad for my GPU??

[lucas_needsagamingpc]

so usually when i play fortnite, my GPU is usually averaging 83C when my fan is 50%, and i always prefer 50% because any higher is to loud for my fan. So my main question is, is it ok to run at 83C with my GPU? (if not i can put my fan to 80 percent, but i rather not because its to loud)

GPU: 2070 super

sorry, i didnt mean to subject CPUs

Arctic silver time to clean and re paste on the GPU only

Your GPU is thermal throttling at this temperature, and this is also considered hot enough to not be very good for GPU longevity.

I recommend increasing your fan speed.

If the GPU is more than 2-3 years old or have enough game time on it, try replacing its thermal paste with a new one and check it on 50% fan speed, if it still crosses 75*c, increase its fan speed and bear with its sound or if u have the budget, upgrade yr GPU.

Seriously dont even consider repasting a gpu as new as a 2070!!

If youb want to run a gpu at 50% fans then cae airflow and ambient temps play a big part in this.

It's doable but only in certain scenarios.

What are your ambient temps and case/fan confifuration??

Also consider limiting fps, which will lower gpu usage and temps.

If youre running a 2070 on fortnite at 100% utilisation you're probably hitting 300fps which is absolutely pointless.

He has a 2070 super; those have only been out for like a year. The paste should still be in good condition and he has no reason to upgrade with an almost new $500 GPU.

50% fan speed is low when gaming; either increase fan speed or improve your case airflow.

my GPU is actually like 3 months old

Increase the fan speed.

Increase the fan speed.

hey yeah, i ended up increasing the speed, and it went down to like 70-75C, im guessing that is fine, raised it to like 60%

75C is fine for a card.
