I made a similar post a while back. In it, I detailed that I bought a pre-built (oof) https://www.newegg.com/p/N82E16883227875?Item=N82E16883227875 for the sake of saving some time as I had to move soon. However, I initially thought that the CPU was throttling my GPU's performance as I had some incorrect clock speeds for the CPU that were on my end. This helped my PC out for a while.
Now, however, my GPU is still wildly overheating despite fixing the clock speeds for my CPU. In fact, my computer performs fairly well using UserBenchmark with the exception of my GPU, which is in the 8th percentile of the 2080 Ti.
For example, I just played a game of Ground War in Modern Warfare, and I hit a maximum temperature of 86 despite playing in a 1920x1080 window and not even having the settings completely max'd.
In the previous thread I posted, I questioned the capability of the PSU, wondering if it was too little power and if it was throttling my GPU, though I'm not entirely sure if PSUs can even do that, or if they have any relation to GPU temperature. While that could be the case, it is worth noting that my PC's performance has gotten gradually worse; the average FPS in the games I play has been declining more and more recently while my GPU's temp has been going up and up, and I'm wondering if it's the GPU, PSU, or both.
I've tried plugging my GPU into a different port, cleaning my PC multiple times, anti-virus, different drivers, overclocking, etc. None of it has led to more stable performance on my GPU's end, and the amount of work the fans have to do is absurd. I can always hear my PC when I'm running any game that's slightly demanding because they practically run full speed just to prevent the GPU from overheating to the point wherein my PC automatically shuts down.
