Graphics card fan. FPS Drops on my laptop. Screen goes black then resolution drop after the screen goes back on when starting a video. RTX Freezing Problems. Nvidia Highlights capture for Call of Duty: Vanguard? Technical Issue. Why are you touching the Gpu backplate? Thanks a lot for the help guys! Aug 20, 50 11, The temps seem to be fine. Also the higher idle temps because even so you didn't mention the GPU MSI model, my best guess that your card turns off the fans when temps drop under a certain temperature in order to bei silent in idle.

And in gaming my overclocked card hits usually upper 70s with closed cased and lower 70s with open case. Phaaze88 Titan Ambassador. Dec 30, 16, 3, 75, 2, Views said:.

Phaaze88 said:. It depends on your room temps and your case cooling. The Ti versions very often run a little cooler due to slightly lower gpu clock rates. They usually much larger chips with many more cuda cores. So it should run a little cooler. His super is basically a and the temps seem absolutely normal. My card runs mhz before 60C with an overclock My specific Ti has a maximum power limit of w.

Depending on the exact model of the OP's Super , it's either , , or w Pretty sure I have the hotter card. The OP's Super should be capable of similar temps. There's either a case cooling issue, or the gpu cooler's design isn't great Last edited: Jan 24, You can't compare Pascal to Turing, since Pascal is 14nm and Turing 12nm.

Good chips can hit over Mhz. I hope I was able to explain that easy enough. In Short: Ti version are much faster, but not due to clock speeds. However, power use increases linearly with clockspeed, but with the square of the voltage, so a 10 percent drop in voltage will be much more beneficial than a 10 percent drop in clockspeed. With Afterburner, you'll need to check the option to unlock voltage adjustments and restart the utility.

After that, most GPUs can be safely tweaked up or down about 0. AMD's Vega cards are particularly good candidates for undervolting in my experience.

Newer Nvidia cards RTX series don't generally allow undervolting in the traditional sense, however. Like this, for example:. As with overclocking, you should test stability after any changes, with multiple games and applications. There is no guarantee that your particular GPU and graphics card will handle a large voltage drop, and even if some games are stable, others might crash. I'd start with a 50mv 0. After you get a baseline voltage, you can test in other applications.

For clockspeed, the idea is the same. Dropping MHz can help if you're willing to sacrifice a bit of performance. Note that because of the way modern GPUs work eg, with a base clock and turbo clocks , a 50MHz change in setting won't always result in a 50MHz drop.

Still, you should see lower boost clocks and can tweak as necessary. Fan speeds vary a lot between different graphics card models, even with the same GPU. Some models prioritize low noise over temperature, which can mean GPUs that will push C.

My personal philosophy after many years of testing and using a wide range of graphics cards is that lower temperatures are more important than a 'silent' graphics card—and I'm always a bit worried with models where the fans stop completely below 50C. I'd rather have a slow fan speed of percent as a minimum, just to be safe, and I really don't like having a GPU exceed 80C. In Afterburner, I'll define a custom fan curve like the above to keep things in check.

There's an alternative to adjusting the fan curve, which some might prefer.
