What's the best program for OCing the Fury X? I'd like to downclock and undervolt it... It's too hot for my liking.

Have you touched the side of it after extended use? It burns me when I touch it
Do you randomly put your hand on a stove top after cooking something?
It is completely normal for video cards to go over 80 degrees Celsius as the whole card is not being actively cooled.
http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/amd-radeon-r9-fury-x,4196-8.html shows up to 90 Celsius when being stress tested.
Use frame rate limiter, it should keep it running cooler
Came here with hopes of news that voltage was unlocked for Fury X.....leaving disappointed 😣
Dude, why? The card has a warranty for a reason. If you paid $650 for a high end video card to complain that it runs hot you are lighting money on fire. Do research before you buy next time.
What review sites showed the card running anything but very cool?Review sites were conflicting on temp. Warranty only lasts so long and RMA isn't a fun process.

I ran two 290X video cards at 95C for 2 years and didn't have a problem. High temps are not an issue with modern video card design. If you are thinking this is a problem because of all the issues people had with cards from around 2006-2009 this was due to the change away from lead-based solder for environmental reasons (and why baking the cards to reflow the traces worked to fix them). That has not been a problem in a long time.
Dayaks how much faster in games is the Fury X compared to whatever you owned before?
Of course the board components are higher temperature than what sites report, sites are reporting the GPU core temperature. The board temperature doesn't matter. The VRMs are rated to 125C, running 60-100C is not a problem.
For one. There's other sites.
Overclock
Really, I own the fucking card, I know it's not at 40C like some of those sites show. Watercooling components generally don't like above 50-60C. The lower the better. I'd like it to last 3-5 years.
I came here wondering what the best program to manipulate the thing was which I do to EVERY card I own. I don't mind running a fan 10% faster if it lowers the temp. I did the same to my nVidia cards. Avoids throttling as well.
Because he is ill-informed and I'm trying to prevent people from wasting money buying a $650 GPU and then underclocking it because he mistakenly thinks a board temperature hitting 100C under max load is a problem.He wants to down clock and and under volt his card. Seriously why are people caring what he wants to do?

Top pic looks like it has a backplate while bottom pic shows no backplate, IMO I can see why there would be 'conflicting' temp numbers
Those temps coincide. It's the numbers where everything is 4xC that conflicts, like guru3d, that I did not show. Rizen said he's only seen cool numbers... So I showed him VRMs at 100+ and PCie pins at 60+.
Am I saying this card will fail soon? No, I like this card. I'd just like to make it a little cooler than the 250D side panel being borderline burning to the touch.
I'll mess around with Afterburner in about an hour... see what it lets me mess with. Fan curves might be enough.
I think some voltage control has already been unlocked by enthusiasts. TPU tested Fury X undervolted. I'd look at OCN Fury X thread.
For the record after adjusting the Fan/Max temp settings this card is a bit cooler and is still quiet. I really like the thing. Fury X is really nice for (the bigger end) of SFF where you can fit the rad, like a 250D. I always like AIO card and Fury X makes sense if you compare it against a 980ti AIO.
You should be able to just use AMD CCC, set the clock and/or power target lower and it should run cooler. Otherwise MSI afterburner works fine on my Fury.
