Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
My fans are running fine, I tested them at 100% and the result is the same. I'm not overclocking the GPU. I cleaned everything up, and I couldn't do the flashlight test because this GPU's shroud design doesn't allow it, but I'd say the contact is good, though I'm not sure how good the mounting...
Yes, I bought the Thermal Grizzly PhaseSheet. I have to admit I tried gaming right after installing the PTM, but do you really think a few cycles can drastically improve this behavior? It seems too aggressive, and the PTM should manage to drop temperatures by about 15-20°C to keep them at decent...
But the weird thing is that the problem wasn't this aggressive before. The GPU hotspot used to reach about 98°C during a 15-minute Deathmatch session in CS2. Then, in a competitive match or another game with a longer session, it would hit 110°C. But now it goes straight to 110°C immediately...
Yes, but as I mentioned to pendragon1, If it were a heat pipe failure, shouldn't the heatsink be cold in some areas and hot in others? Because it seems like the heat is being transported throughout the entire heatsink
Yes, I've already tried adding more thermal paste but it didn't fix it. No, unfortunately I don't have a spare AIO. If it were a heat pipe failure, shouldn't the heatsink be cold in certain areas and hot in others? Because it seems like the heat is spreading throughout the entire heatsink
Hi everyone! Two weeks ago, I noticed a problem with my Sapphire AMD 7900 XT (MBA) graphics card. The problem was that after a long CS2 session, the hotspot reached a maximum of around 110°C, while the core stayed at 70°C. My GPU is 3 years old. I'm not sure if the issue has always been there...
