I have a factory overclocked titan black that I use evga precision to overclock a bit more, I get up to 1116 boost clock. My problem is this.
If I put evga precision fan on auto, with power setting and temp setting to the highest, there's just no way that clock is stable, benchmarks and games crash after a few minutes and I never see the card get that hot, in fact the card has a great cooling solution, my case is perfectly vented right under the card's agx cooler and I also have a backplate.
It shows temp target 95c, which means it should be getting up to 95c before it starts to throttle or whatever but I don't even see it getting near 80 before the crash happens.
Now if I manually set the fan to 70% (or more, obviously) the same clock is perfectly stable, I get big scores in bench tests and my games never crash.
I don't understand, what good is the auto fan setting if it doesn't seem to catch up to the card's heat before it crashes? Or maybe this isn't the problem at all, after all I don't see the card get that hot in the first place.
Sure the solution is to have 70% fan in my OC profiles and that is it but I want to understand whats going on with the auto setting.
Thanks.
