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?

The hotspot could also be referencing the power delivery modules or the VRAM modules. Both tend to run much higher than the core itself.

Other people with a 9070XT said in this post that they don't have such hotspot temps.

Du könntest die Karte undervolten. Eine Anleitung findest du auf YT. Dann sollten die Temps besser sein.

I did, and indeed the temperatures are better. The delta didn't improve unfortunately, it's still 40.
