That card should never be getting that hot from arc raiders. All you did was apply a bandaid to the issue.

this is only going to "push" the problem to reappear 3 months max, also its crashing not throttling so it is not his fucking vent

Ah yes the extra fans will delay the inevitable, rather than replacing thermal paste and pads on the gpu if that was even the actual problem

This is genuinely a bad way to trouble shoot this issue, ofc extra fans below will help but I think you should have checked the basics first. Maybe use software like msi afterburner for example to check frequency and temps on the gpu plus track the cpu clock to see if it runs at expected frequency if anything is abnormal then plan the fix based on that info rather than jumping straight to new fans. When thats dealt with obviously wipe drivers clean and install the latest and update bios if new version available and tweak it abit depending on the hardware.

This is the most bandaid fix you can do. Your hand is not a thermometer. You should be using temp monitoring tools to see how hot the gpu is really getting. What if its not thermal throttling at all and its the drivers. What if its not thermal throttling gpu at all?

a touch test doesn't really tell you much, because the back plate is supposed to get hot on most graphics cards. you shouldn't be touching a graphics card that's within the safe range anyway it's too hot. use a thermometer

Bandaid. Even dusty like that it shouldn’t over heat. It needs new pads and thermal paste.

Have to agree with the comments here. I'd be pissed if I brought my PC in for repair and the guy said "oh it felt like it was getting hot, I used my hand" Why would you not use any other temp monitoring or troubleshooting tools to look for errors or other issues.

Here’s a tough one for you: our monitor randomly gets a “no display found” notice/black screen after playing games for 5 minutes or 5 hours. No real rime or reason. Updated all HDMI/ports, updated drivers, updated Microsoft, send GPU to manufacturer - reapplied new thermal paste & updated firmware, bought a new monitor, bought new display port chord/new HDMI chord, installed 1 new fan, installed a support for the graphics card AND nothing fixed it. However, removing out GPU & using an old one from our friend fixes the issue. No more randomly loosing input/display connection. Put back in our GPU - same issue happens. Have had 2 PC builders look at it & an IT company. As well as the GPU manufacturer “can’t find anything wrong” with our GPU or PC

hey man i have a question. i wanted to improve airflow in my case since as of rn i only have the fans of the liquid cooling pushing air out, i wanted to turn on all 3 fans on my case (NZXT H6 FLOW), however i dont have any more pins for fans on my mb. i was thinking about buying a splitter to have 3 case fans and 3 cooler fans on the SYS_FAN1 connector (mb is a B450M-A) but idk if that would mess it up, do you think i should do that? otherwise what other ideas do you have?

Girlfriends pc RANDOMLY shuts itself off, can go a week, maybe a day, or even a month and then does it randomly. She’s connected to a UPS as well. Warzone tends to trigger it more often. Is it “brownout” or something similar?

Hey ! Any clue what can it be that my pc randomly starts framing/lagging and it either shuts down black screen which happened once or it goes back to normal after some seconds itself or it stays like that until I reboot. Side note when this problem occurs I cannot shut down my pc , I have to force shut down. I can’t figure out which part it could be problematic. My pc is very clean very often air blowed . New fans new case new water cooler

Ayron :
what would cause a screen to black out but still hear the game ? I've changed Hz, I've changed to window border less, I've changed Nvidia from 100-90, I've turned gsync off, I've switched to better Dp cables, I've updated graphics card ... I don't know what else to do ... brand new MSI / Asus screens

Eric I need your help or advice to fix my Laptop randomly shuts off then I leave it for 3-4h (unplug) then when I tried powering it on the laptop won't turn on I tried different kind of fix such as holding power button swapping the rams and removing the bios but nothing helps when I inserted a lower ram (2gb) the indicator lights stays on but there's no display T-T
