MSI Afterburner temp limit.

Hello, I just want to ask. What's the point of limiting the GPU temp in MSI Afterburner?

GPU, VRAM, and VRM thermal sensor will signal system to lower speed if thermal limit met, you should only OC your graphic card with proper setup.

Raising MHz comes with the rise of wattage consumption, every cooler has its own TDP capability, problem is there's no exact math on how hot it'll become on # of wattage consume, not the mentioned that thermal sensors are within ~ 5 % error margin, so when you see 90 deg it actually ~95 deg or ~85 deg.

Limit GPU temp in afterburner to certain degree assured stable speed without have to throttle down,

When the GPU becomes too hot (85c+), it starts degrading slowly thus reducing its lifespan. Temp limit of 85c, for example, reducing GPU power to make it cooler whenever it reaches 85c.
