Hello community,
I am experiencing overheating issues after upgrading my GPU to the XFX R9 390X-8DF6. The card runs around 35 °C idle, but will go up to around 73 °C when running graphic intensive games, ultimately shutting my PC off. Is this a common issue with these cards?
I have installed latest drivers and have cleaned the dust out of the case. Would additional cooling units be the solution to this problem? If so, which units are recommended?
Here are my specs:
OS: Windows 10 Home 64bit
PSU: CORSAIR Professional Series HX850 (CMPSU-850HX) 850W
CPU: AMD FX-8120 Zambezi
RAM: 16GB Dual-channel DDR3
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD3 (Socket M2)
GPU: AMD Radeon R9 390 Series XFX R9 390X-8DF6
Storage: Samsung SSD 850 EVO 1TB / Western Digital WDC WD1001FALS-00Y6A0
Case: COOLER MASTER HAF 932 Advanced RC-932-KKN5-GP
