Hi everyone.

I have one problem whit my card R9 270 2GB, my regular temperature in idle is around 40c(or litlle less,depend of room temp. ofc) but after some time temperature go up by 10-13c and i do nothing,just staying on desktop.

When i reset PC temperature is back to normal (40c) and working normal some time and after some time same problem is back untill i restart my PC again.

What can be problem,is there something working in backround that make temp. higher 10c then in normal situations ? :/

 
Solution
Download Hitman Antivirus scanner and scan with it. Also clean the gpu fan shroud with air also check that airflow in your case is okay and not low. Usually two intakes in front and 1 exhaust has given me best results.

I gona try that but don t think that is problem,i didnt have problem untill few months when i instal fresh Windows.

I just restart PC and temperature in now 38c when i wrothe this and was 50c 15-20 min ago,there must be some thing whit Windows maybe that run some program in backround. :/
