Stock GPU overheating?

[breadpug]

Hi guys,

I was looking into overclocking my GPU with MSI Afterburner and Kombustor and I ran a quick test at stock settings and I'm seeing that my GPU temps are sitting quite high. I ran it for about 10 minutes and my peak temp was 84*C. I had the fan speed set on auto and it was hovering at around 80% and I know that they're spinning correctly because I can hear it when I crank them up to 100% manually.

The Corsair case fan is one of my intake fans and the other three fans in the case are stock fans from an NZXT Phantom 410 case. 2 120mm intake fans at the front, 1 120mm exhaust fan at the back, and 1 140mm exhaust fan at the top. All my case fans are set to maximum speed via BIOS.

You sound like you have plenty of air coming through your case... Your temps are high on the gpu but not outside of acceptable limits... However, this seems really high...

You might consider putting some better thermal paste on the GPU. It might have bad contact... Maybe see if any screws are loose and the heatsink is not making good contact. It's really odd that it should run that hot on stock...

How are your idle and in game GPU temps?
