Hi, I have some concerns about my GPU temps but it's entirely possible that my inexperience on the subject is just causing me paranoia. I recently built this machine:
Maximus VIII Hero
i5 6600K OC @ 4.5Ghz
Corsair H100i GTX liquid cooler
16GB ram (2x8 DDR4 3200 GSKILL Vsync)
Gigabyte G1 Gaming 970 GTX x 2 SLI
Corsair 750D Case (Not the airflow model)
Acer Predator XB271HU ISP G-Sync Monitor 2560 x 1440
Here is my case airflow setup:
That comes out to about +30 CFM positive pressure.
When I was playing on a 60hz 1080p monitor by GPU's never got higher than 50C. Now that I got a big boy monitor and I'm playing games at 165hz 2560 x 1440 w/ Gsync @ max settings, GPU1 hovers between 76-81C and GPU2 is between 60-66C.These temps were while playing World of Warcraft mind you, a very old non-graphics intensive game.
My question: Are these temps for my GPUs normal? Should I be at all concerned? Is my case fan setup ideal? Do I need more fans? My computer now is much louder because they fans are ramping up with the higher case temps. My CPU temps are steady at around 30C so that's not an issue. One other thing I noticed is that when I put my hand over the top of my case above the radiator exhaust, I can barely feel anything coming out. Is that normal? I know the fans working.
