Hello. I am currently trying to help a friend figure out his graphics card. He recently got a computer with a card like mine. The AMD Radeon RX 5500 XT 8gb version. I tried to explain to him what i had found out about the card and the GPU temp and the GPU *hotspot* temp but i do not think i explained it right to him as he assumes there one in the same thing.
Now i would just like some help in calirifing to him about them. His main question he asked me was which one should i keep an eye on to know if the card is overheating.
I know the GPU temp is that of the card but i am not 100% clear on the GPU Hotspot temp. is that also the temp of the card? If so when he games and streams should he keep on eye on the hotspot temp and keep it below a certin temp or just on the gpu temp itself.
The main reason im asking to get some clairfication is becuase he plays a game called eve online and when he was playing last night the gpu temp was between 55 and 70c b ut the gpu hot spot temp was between 65 and 93c
