Question RTX 2060 Temp

[Kevin0412]

Hey everyone.

I just had a question. I bought D4 2 weeks ago and I've noticed my GPU isnt "liking" it within the first 24hrs I noticed an increase in my fan speed to the point I could hear it but that could've been any fan in my system right??? I wasn't monitoring it. Then I went back to play WoW and my fps wasn't soo great so I decided to download HWMonitor and have been monitoring my stuff. GPU underload with WoW has been maxing out @ 78 C as of yesterday. I haven't checked D4 due to being paranoid that i'm going to destroy my card. i've been watching youtube channels Jaytwocents, Roo Tech, etc. After they do their build and do benchmarks on games CoD, Warzone, Fortnite etc.. Under load their temps are under 70 C regardless of how much stress its under. So I don't know what else I should to keep my stuff cool I added top fans last week to help as well. I would like to go back and play Diablo seeing as being paranoid I asked Blizz for a refund so I could buy it on PS5 and that went south.

Any idea/help would be great.

Also for the record I brought the air compressor out and cleaned everything before I started doing/adding anything to it.

Specs:
Case: Corsair Carbide Delta Series
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 3700X
GPU: EVGA RTX 2060
Ram: 32 GB HyperX
CPU Cooler; Cooler Master Hyper 212
Motherboard: MSI B550-A- PRO

Which specific model of 2060 do you have? (EVGA used something like 3 or 4 different coolers)

I have a KO Ultra which has 2 fans and can get into the upper 60s/lower 70s. If you have a single fan model the temp you're seeing would be somewhat expected. Otherwise you may just need to do some basic maintenance in terms of cleaning out the heatsink of dust etc if you haven't already. Also no reviews or tests done by a third party can replicate your setup with regards to room temps, case temps and fan speeds. Don't put too much stock into temperature numbers you see unless it's a dramatic difference.

Generally for monitoring GPU I'd use something like MSI Afterburner as you can easily see power/clocks/temps/usage/fan speed etc all together.
