High temps on my Asus GTX 760?

[aboreal]

Hi there, I have a Asus Direct CU GTX 760. Im worry about my temps.

Playing games (Blood Dragon/RISEN 2) the VGA reach 75º with the fan at 78%. Does not exceed that temp.

Room temperature.: 28º


Are this temps ok? I believe that to be custom Direct CU are a little bit high...


Cheers!

That temp is actually pretty good. These cards can get over 90C at times. Depends on load, ambient temps and case cooling.

I used to have the 670 DCUII and those temps do seem a tad high. I overvolted and overclocked mine and with an adjusted fan curve I never went over 70c.

I did have to move my disk trays in order to allow airflow onto the card in order to achieve this, and adding a side fan definitely helped.

What is your cases airflow like?

My case its a Fractal R3:

- 2 front fans pulling air in

- 1 rear fan drawing air out


Its algo the fan heatsink (Thermalright macho HR-02) from my 4790K.

Is proper ventilation?


Cheers!

Should be fine, are the drive bays blocking the front fans?

No. Only 1 SSD in the lower part.

It may be problem of the GTX 760? Should I use the side fan?


Cheers!

No problem IMO, in fact boost stretches its legs until you hit 80c, so it's all well.

You could turn up the fan if you like, as mentioned above, but if you gamed for a long period, and stayed under 80 your fine.

 

[Deders]

Yeah tbh under 80 is quite safe, what temps do you get in games like Crysis 3?

Like Crysis 3 could be Far Cry 3 ? Maybe I should run a benchmark?

I also think tu undervolt, but the only way its to modify the Bios... and I dont know how to do it


Cheers

 

[Deders]

Yeah Far Cry 3 is definitely more demanding than Blood Dragon, give it a try, can you set a custom fan profile?

Yes, I had already set it with Afterburner custom fan profile.

The temps are similar to Blood Dragon.

Im going to try with the side fan.

I have none fan in the top of the case, Should I put it?


Cheers!

 

[Deders]

I expect the side fan will help the most as it blows onto the GPU, but if you're still not happy you can try the top.

I put a Nidec GT 1800rpm running on full. Now I have only 1 or 2 degrees less.

So... Maybe the problem its the GTX 760...

thats a bit high, I used to have 660 in SLi and it never got over 61C

pretty good? no, 75 C is pretty high for stock Asus DirectCU 760 with fans at 78%. and not even the reference card should hit 90 C under remotely normal conditions.

EDIT: 60 C even when oced http://www.hardocp.com/article/2013...ectcu_ii_oc_video_card_review/10#.VAKIHVzZSHs

My VGA could be defective?

Im thinking about the importance of ambiente temperature. In that review im pretty sure the ambiente temperature is not like mine (28º).


Cheers!

here they hit 68 at stock and 74 oced. http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/ASUS/GeForce_GTX_760_Direct_Cu_II_OC/31.html

with your warmer room I guess 75 at stock may be normal.

 

[ShintaiDK]

I dont see an issue with that temperature.

 

[Techhog]

28C is a somewhat high ambient temp, so yeah, looks fine.
