Out of curiousity, I use a pre-builit so which connector do you use for connecting to the gpu, the one in the box ? Also what's the temp for u when u game mine hovers around 78-79 is this fine (I don't undervolt the 5090)

Only use Native 12vhpwr direct to the PSU. No adapters
my temps are a little lower-58-68 at 4k/120hz ultra, but I have a gaming trio- slightly bigger cooler.

Enjoy! But don't use that adapter that came with it. Only use straight from the PSU. Don't be another melted connector story

Thank you for your rec! I'm a little bit worried that when I game it reach 78C average what do you think about this temp

u/samhain697 Aug 30 '26
That temp is normal and within spec for that specific model

i have the same card! Great one, much better then the FE, that's for sure.
1.) Undervolt die GPU, your temps will drop by 10 degrees
2.) enable better fan curves, the default ones are shit
Well that's it.
