MSI GTX 1080 Ti Seahawk running too hot

[skpatel71]

Help me my gtx 1080 seahawk is running too hot , i saw reviews of this and everyones temp never exceeded 50c and their idle was 30c with ambient 20c
my ambient is also 20c but card is running 40c idle and 65c load temp even though im using pushpull config on the radiator

it's still well within safe temps

are the fans on the GPU radiator setup as intake, or exhaust?

ive got the 1080 seahawk and my gpu can get to 60 degrees under hard load... though it depends on the fan curve ive set on msi afterburner

im using nzxt s340 elite and radiator is on the read fan mount with corsair hd120 fans intake from inside and exhaust out .
tt water 3.0 280mm for cpu cooling

temps are going to vary from system to system

not everyone is going to have the same internal case temp

The only thing that is going to bring the temp down (even though it's already safe), is to tweak your fan curves, improve the airflow in to the case with your case fan setup, or re-position the GPU rad as an intake so it's bringing cooler air over the rad

I wouldn't worry about it though, as a max load temp of 65C is fine

mine is setup like this, dont know how your is setup or what case you have.

im not worrying about gpu , im just mad that i paid 100 $ more for 50c temps and overclocking
i think reviews tested this card in open bench.

 

[blockhead78]

yeah, some use case systems for reviews, some use open test benches

what kind of CPU cooler are you using?

if you havent fiddled with the fan curve of msi afterburner you will get 40 c on idle, though then it become a issue of noise vs temps... as the fan that comes with the gpu cooler isnt amongst the quietest. hes got a thermaltake 280 mm http://www.thermaltake.com/products-model.aspx?id=C_00003009

what is your pc specs
can you share your idle and load temp screenshot use furmark to load gpu.

pc specs are in my description.... can not do it at this exact moment as I am away from my computer.

Where have you plugged the pump into? Make sure its getting full 100% power if its from a motherboard header, if its being run at a lower voltage that might explain it.

prefurmark... Although a pretty syntethic test.

after 5 minutes of furmark... peaked at 57 degrees... would probably have gone higher... but no way is that load real... gaming never gets me above 55 degrees.

there is no pump header on the gtx 1080 seahawk , you can check on google
