The bigger picture is that Nvidia wants a single consistent temp under load, not a variable temps. Variable temps (thermal cycling) can be worse for hardware than consistent temps that are a bit on the high side.Nvidia AIB partners don't necessarily want the GPUs running at 80C either, thus the ACX cooler etc. but it's because of, less heat and less noise, not really because it will kill the card right?
Nvidia personally selects 80c, their AIB partners can select a different value, but the resulting behavior is the same: The card ramps up to the designated temperature and stays there as best it can.
Also, the ACX cooler isn't the greatest example. It has a tenancy to make systems louder rather than quieter (which I found out, the hard way).
No, I mean, the only conclusion you should personally be able to reach from that pile of quote blocks (especially within the context of each one) is that you really need to read more closely.I have no doubt you aren't sure how I came to that conclusion.
See? There you go again. What was that directed at?And those posts were more than replies to just myself.
I never said that those quotes were all replies to you, I said you "basically just pointed out all the times I had to correct you because you didn't read."
Which is true, you're in there a bunch of times (other people are too, but that doesn't impact what I said in the slightest, since it still also points out all the times that YOU had to be corrected).
