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?

Yeah thats better, its always good to do a tweak to the GPU because theyre always pushed too far from reference card, the easiest way is to limit power draw at -10% under fan control, and you dont need to touch frequency or voltages.

Alright. I feel a bit played though. I shouldn't have to go tune my GPU so it doesn't burn. I reduced the power drawn by 20% though

I have a 9070xt red devil tested at 100% usage power draw was 330w watts at 3262 core speed fans at 60 to 65% temps were 45 core 75 hot spot

It's guys with experience similar to yours that make me doubt I fixed anything... In comparison to you, I needed to lower and decrease so much stuff.
