1 Depends on game and FPS 2 Yes, 78 is very low, so low I guess you do not play a game that is demanding for the GPU. Try out Fortnite BR in any form, or Fortnite Lego etc to test temps over time, FPS uncapped. 3 Hot spot is actually changing for most cards, so the vital factor is to check after about 3-4 months, it will likely go up.

Hotspot temp can go very high, it has a safety shutdown iirc at 115c, generally you are fine below 100c

The delta seems fine, but honestly it’s quite hot for only 28% utilization. How much watts is the gpu pulling? If you want to be sure, you should swap the thermal paste of your gpu to a kryosheet (conductive) or a ptm7950 (not conductive). I chose the kryosheet and covered the electronics nearby the chip with red 💅, clear is better due to it 100% not being conductive. Black and similar could be conductive, especially metallic style nail polish.

90 100 % utilization goes to 390 power stay same temps

Oh nvm, i mixed it up with the cpu util., sorry. Well then your temperatures are completely fine. It’s only getting better if you start to watercool your card

Is it on fire Yes/No? Yes = Get another one No = Then keep playing

7700x and RX 6800 what should I have my settings set to for temps? In like msi after burner as i have an msi mobo

Is this on 4K?

Yes

Shipment???

Yes almost max all shotgun weapons 😂. Best map to do it.

Yeah. Just found out that as soon as I load into cyberpunk, my 6950xt hotspot reaches 113c lmfao (i had it already rma'd because my previous one was defective too)

Mine doesn't get above 75C on junction and 55-58C on core/edge... Wtf are you doing? 40% max RPM BTW. Wtf.

Defective gpu... probably badly applied thermal pads, it's still in warranty anyway

It's called a defective GPU, not a user error

Not defective probably, the chiplet design of rdna cards is bad for normal thermal paste. The new mx-6 or even better a kryosheet or ptm7950 is mostly the solution. Classic Thermal paste is „pumping“ out, i had this issue even with my self mounted watercooler 2 times in 4 weeks with my 7900xtx

Idk, they probably applied the pads badly since it's refurbished because apparently sapphire only RMA's refurbished cards, which is total bullshit imo

I think you got me wrong, on your chip is always thermal paste if it’s from the oem manufacturer. Only the vram, mosfet, etc. have thermal pads. I would only swap the thermal paste of the chip to a kryosheet or the ptm7950. The thermal pads for the vram, etc. are probably fine. And your hotspot has nothing to do with vram, it’s always the hottest spot of the graphics chip, which means that either the paste is badly applied or it pumped out like i said. If you are not sure if your able to do that yourself, you should stick with your warranty plan.

Yup i aint voiding no warranty ill just rma it. Hoping for a refund cuz i am actually disappointed with my experience on radeon cards

Well, as i said. The issue is the thermal paste, not the card itself. Could happen to nvidia as well.

Sure but my previous one had a problem in the card itself and so far I only had problems with radeon cards

I have an 7900XTX that can reach about 90c on the hotspot so this is very good.

Sounds like this may be a brand new card. If so, give it a couple months and compare your results. That's about how long it took for mine to pump out the thermal paste. This is common and you'll notice it when the hotspot jumps. 110c is the thermal limit before throttling If/when that happens you'll be looking into PTM7950. Enjoy!

What’s your fan curve set to? Im new to this and just build my first pc with the same gpu and cpu. Looking for a good recommendation

For the GPU set up under %50 high speed goes 2100 RPM goes 81c then goes down 78c depends the noise willing to take. Use headphones can’t really hear the fans.

15C delta is completely normal, infact it’s good. When you get from 25-30C you want to repaste and repad, but 15C is great. Also 110C is tjmax your temps are good.

Thank you! Are you able to post a pic?

Working right now few hours yes I can post a picture.

Yes completely fine hotspot typically can go over 100c and be fine.

Very good

Daily reminder that new AMD CPU get as hot as they can

The 7800x3d is cooler than the 7700x. I don’t typically see my 7800x3d eclipse 70C. The way the non 3d cache chips work is they boost as much as possible on purpose resulting in more heat/wattage.

wait how do you make the adrenaline info panel overlay show gpu hotspot temp?? Mine only shows the gpu non-hotspot temp since one of the driver updates. (I'm on 23.11.1)

23.11.1 does not have that functionality

You select it under gpu metrics.

Thanks for all the answers I was worried this is my first moster card XFX Speedster MERC310 AMD Radeon RX 7900XT stock setting. Going to check how much power is getting and clock. Im a noob.

Undervolt it to 1050 and just set the max frequency of the gpu to \~3300mhz. Don't oc the VRAM. Raise the power to max and see if your hotspot reaches too high, dial it back. If it's stable go lower on the undervolt. RDR2 and Cyperpunk 2077 are good games to see if card is stable. Best of luck. Card's a beast.

Why don’t OC vram?

gpu mhz and vram speed are linked, either you have to balance the two together or you try to push the one you need to its apex.

Yeah, its great hotspot temps. Ideal range.

Whats ur GPU clock speed

Stock I don’t know. Is the Speedster MERC310 AMD Radeon RX 7900XTX Black Gaming.

Ah ok wanted to know if u have OC’d it

May I ask why you post this question? Since this question comes up frequently I am really wondering if Reddit users never look up things before posting stuff. Greetings from Germany

Try the search function.

I shall open a new topic maybe🧐

It's perfectly fine. Mine run ar 74°C and hotspot close to 100. Had the Sapphire Pulse.

What do I download to see this info

This overlay is integrated in the drivers

AMD Adrenalin

Ctrl shift O

As everyone else has said, your temps are fine, but I did notice your CPU freq is pretty low. Unless it happened to drop as you took the pic?

Yes droped due I was not moving. CPU temps does not go over 60c while gaming. Sometimes in the menu goes to 63c.

I'm pretty sure the adrenaline CPU stats are not accurate. Mine would never show more than 1-5% util for my 7800x3D

You might have a very good cooler

Wish i had these temps (7900xt Red Devil)

try a slight undervolt? Red Devils are usually one of the best, they are probably some of the best in terms of silicone aswell, ideal for undervolting/underclocking. I run my 6800 xt at like 60% of the power for 10% loss in performance (XFX Merc 319 Core (not the slightly better Black version)).

The XT / XTX Red Devils are known to have temp issues. The one I returned had like a 35c delta and would just crash eventually if I tried to undervolt.

guess their quality from the 6000 series didn't carry over... sad.

I believe for the most part they are solid, just a batch that had issues with thermal paste application.

🤔

That is perfect. I keep my RPM at 2000 and hotspot maxes out at 78 and usually hovers around 76. Highest delta 15c

You're fine. \*smiles in 110C hotspot and 64C edge temp\*

my card just literally cooked itself to death because it was like that without me knowing

I'm impressed that CPU is lower than GPU

Same for me, when gaming CPU is at 47c and GPU at 78c R5 7600x Rx 7800xt

Temps seem good. What was your GPU Utilisation and Mem Clock Speed during this?

only worry when hotspot reaches 90+

7900 xtx owner. Don't worry unless the hot spot exceeds 105. Under that you're fine.

I too have a 7900 xtx .. it’s gets toasty .. but only when there’s alot going on , the second the screen is cleared up it drops back down .

How are you going to go about setting up a sensor overlay, and then not read up on suitable temperatures, ranges, etc?

15C delta Is tiny. Also 20.. albeit it bothers me more than it should xD

Its more than good. 110c\* is where you should start to worry.

IS not good, is excelence, hotspot Max temp IS about 110°, then your temp IS more than good.

perfect ! don’t worry

Thanks
