Graphics Cards

[diogomf9]

Hello everyone!!

Just got (yesterday) a Rx 6700xt saphire pulse, been wanting to upgrade from my gtx 1060 6gb in a while.
The GPU runs smooth but to my astonishment it runs really hot. And when I say really hot it's really hot.

Idle runs between 47 to 52 degrees.
While gaming games like Battlefied 2042, Hogwarts Legacy, Fortnite etc.. I get temps between 75 to 80ish degrees.

Is this normal??

My specs are:
CPU: Ryzen 5600x
Cooler: NZXT kaken x62
GPU: Rx 6700xt Saphire Pulse
Motherboard: MSI B550 Gaming Plus
Ram: 16gb Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro SL (3600Mhz)
SSD: M.2 2280 Western Digital Black SN770 1TB 3D NAND NVMe // SSD Samsung 860 EVO 250gb
PSU: Seasonic S12III-650 650W
Case: Phanteks Eclipse P400

I got 1, 120mm corsair fan in back and 2, 120mm phanteks fans on the top of the case, all pulling hot air from inside of the case and both 140mm fans from the cooler pulling cold air from outside of the case.

Thank you for the help.

By default you should have zero db mode, so 50C at idle is pretty normal. 

I get 47C if just youtubing and browsing and the fans never actually turn on.

If your GPU Hot Spot was around the 80ish during heavy loads than that is normal since the Maximum Operating Temperature of your GPU card Hot Spot is 110c.

I would start troubleshooting if your GPU Hot Spot started reaching over 100c during normal use or if it goes above 110c under any loads.
