what do

replace thermal paste?

its a graphics card not cpu you dum

I hope this is bait

>970
found the problem. shoulda saved up a tad more for the 980
Kayden Bell
this is normal for nvidia graphics cards. i have to limit fps for everything on my 760 in order for it to not smell like burning CDs

I do have a 970.
It's perfectly silent
You might wanna adjust your fancurve
You got to be kidding right?
Elijah Parker
His assumption is not 100% wrong since manufacturers use thermal pads too which need to be replaced after disassembly.
Cooper Robinson
you still need thermal paste on the GPU dye lol
Austin Sullivan
I know this isn't Sup Forums but i just got quads
Brandon Morris
If the fan is loud just adjust the fan curve
Precision X and Afterburner can do that iirc
Ryder Barnes
And I am not denying that.
Also checked.

Eh?
Or you could have just buy a less shit case with sound dampening foam.

Nothing beats an acoustically isolated cab.
No need to use a vacuum layer and a floating box design, but the results are awsome. An old P4 Northwood with failing fans is totally inaudiable when placed inside.

Gigabyte? How much does that give in boost, like 1500MHz?
Christopher Mitchell
ASUS
1478MHz to be precise.
Hunter Lee
Yeah faggot. My GPU temps are in the low 30s when I'm not utilizing my GPU.
At least show us your temps when you GPU is stressed out
Benjamin Ward
Can you see the MAX value in red?
Lincoln Reed
Do you have a reference card?
Easton Williams
Here is mine

Sounds to me like there's a problem with the fan's bearing. If it's still under warranty you might need to send it in.
Dominic Perez
This make the first thing you do with a new GPU is change the default fan curve, almost all default curves are too weak and cause thermal problems or too strong and cause way too much noise when it's not hot
Change it so it's low then at about 70c the fan curve rises up way higher and maxes out 100℅ at around 85/90c
Aaron Roberts
If the Temps are high the fans can't dissipate the heat. If the Temps are low you just need to adjust the fancurve. Which model do you own exactly?
Landon Murphy
Watercooling?
Pushed mine to +200/+500
Temperature reached 67
Elijah Brown
They use thermal pads on VRAM and VRMs, not on the GPU.
The GPU has paste.
Jacob Clark
Thermal pads are reusable unless you completely fuck them up.
