Question Is it normal for my 2080ti to hit 80-83°C under load?

[Jesper Heidenberg Hansen]

Been playing a lot of RDR2 recently and I've seen my temps reaching 83°C and dropping a few frames(I think, might be me imagining things). I've tried some custom fan speeds, but it reaches 80+ degrees, it just takes longer for it to heat up.

Not hard to believe.
Have you monitored GPU frequency to see if you're getting thermal throttling?
Have you tried gaming with the side panel off your case?

Idk what counts as thermal throttling. The frequency is hovering from 1600 to 1800. It mostly sits at mid 1700.

what is the air flow in the case .

It's the stock nzxt H500. 1x top, 1x back.

You need more fans. 1 top & 1 back are good for exhaust, buy 2x140mm fans for front intake.

I've heard that I shouldn't have fans in the front of the H500.

Even if the 2 front intake fan just have a small opening at the front bottom of the case it's still 2 more fan pushing the air faster to the back of your case and pushing the air on your hardware instead of only sucking this air from the inside of the case alone.

Do you have liquid cooling with radiator mounted in front of the case?
If not, then fans in front are absolutely necessary.

I´ll buy two fans and try. How much does the RPM of the fans matter?

How much will the placement of my PC count? I have it in a corner, but it is pretty cold in the room. Will it be better if I put it on the table or something in terms of air?

 

[tennis2]

Although the H500 may be restrictive to airflow through the front fans, having them there is still better than not.

~1200rpm (if 140mm) fans are fine. Buy fans that are rated for high static pressure. We can help with that. What country?

You need more airflow in the case, your card is thermal throttling sitting at mid 1700Mhz at 80*c.

With good airflow my card will hoover just under 2000Mhz at mid 60*c

 

[scout_03]

if you have similar set up https://www.nzxt.com/products/h500-matte-white as this the gpu will run hot you need 2 fand in front to get fresh air in so get 32 fans for the front with high cfm and low sdb noise .

 

[Nemesia]

Yep 2 good high static pressure fan should do the trick.

Had 7 fans and water cooling on my case with perfect airflow but my full tower case got too hot to touch with rtx 2070 with gtx 1070 it worked fine..also effected my cpu. Some of the rtx GPU's have an issue with over heating. Same with the 5700xt and 5700 amd GPU's had to roll back and stay with 1070 to fix heat issues as it stated artifacting with the rtx GPU's. Called EVGA and they told me on the phone to RMA THE BRAND NEW CARDS...so returned both of the rtx cards to Amazon and they charged restock fee till I yelled at them. The AMD were just as hot but the GTX 1070 ran cool even under load in every game. I think there was bad batches from both companies on GPU'S but alas no way and can't afford to ruin my machine testing for root problem.

I have a MSI 1070 Gaming X and it's pretty cool but what is your fan setup in your case? How many fan are pulling and from where and how many pushing air out and from where?

Do you have a negative or positive pressure in your case?

That's a pretty normal temp unless you've got a great case airflow setup. Have you tried editing the voltage/frequency curve? You should be able to drop at least 0.05v even up to 0.1v+, that will help temps a lot without increasing noisy fan speed.

Looking at benchmarks for your gpu the temps shloud be around 62-65 mayby they have open air test benches so the temps are low but 83 is a bit high.
