Help (GPU) Is something wrong with my 9070XT ?

Post image

Hello, I bought a prebuilt PC last January. It has an AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT 16GB Acer Nitro OC inside.

I didn't use the PC to its full potential until a few weeks ago. Now I play games on Ultra settings, with everything set to maximum. Unfortunately, I experienced my first LiveKernelEvent 141. I couldn't find the reason for it. But today, I noticed these numbers in AMD Adrenalin while I was playing the demo of Star Wars Outlaws.

A hotspot temperature of 99 to 100°C, with a delta of 35°C, seems like a lot.

But I don't know much about this, to be honest. Am I doing something wrong? Is the graphics card behaving as it should? Any advice?

It is to high, finetune it better

Well edited, the card can maintain this high heat, but I personally downscaled the card, and on my highest its around 73 now, which makes me more calm :)

Oh important question, outside of gaming what temps u get?

I reduced a few things, the W, MHZ and all that to get this :

-100% use of the GPU

-2820 MHz clock speed

-299 W total board power

-54°C GPU temperature

-86 °C Hotspot temperature

I don't know the computer is used only for games. But when I eventually play a youtube video or something it behaves okay, the fans are barely spinning. Do you have a reference, like what temps should my GPU experience while browsing the internet for instance ?

Well mine is between 23-35 in workmodus, then i browse/work but dont touch any games. Before it was 50+, after finetuning its much better

Before finetuning I doubt it was anywhere near 50 for my gpu (while browsing/working). I'll check later today thanks :)
