is this problem?

hi
my GPU run @ 11.73v Not 12v. will damage GPU?
Power:Thermaltake 775w XT

No, fluctuation on power draw is pretty common, especially with lower end power supplies. It won't damage anything.

this is a little less but not much affecting your GPU . maybe bad sensor reading

i was thinking problem now i see
thanks guys

happy gaming . .

 

[itech4g]

what do u thinking about this?

problem from GPU-z?

 

[STACKS ON DECK]

it can be . otherwise it is ok

Different programs are going to give you slightly different reading, yes. Seriously, don't worry too much about it - small fluctuations like that aren't a huge deal, and are mostly just caused by the sensors.

just one question
11.73 is ok(idle) one more think is when loading game until 11.64 down still will not damage?
may test with multimeter if i got it

Lower voltage will never cause damage, period. The worselt it could do is not give the card enough power and have it shut off.
Higher voltage might, but you're well within safe boundaries for that.

Lower voltages CAN cause damage if it goes into a buck or boost converter (which a GPU VRM is) because it causes the current to go up to compensate. That said, you are still in spec so there won't be any damage.

It is also not unusual for the GPU voltage to be a little lower than the motherboard voltage because the high current usage and wire voltage drop

tnx man
this is good notice for GPU and i guess may sensor couldn't show exact

1 question again this different

is damage? what means?

 

[smeezekitty]

Looks like carbonization or oxidation. It could be caused by less than perfect contact but it isn't really damage.
It will probably wipe away with a pencil eraser but I don't expect it to cause a problem anyway

cant wipe
idont know why happening just like that in my GPU !!! :|
i bad luck

Are you having a problem? otherwise ignore it

 

[itech4g]

still no having ! just im afraid in future
