Hi ive had a windforce gtx 1060 for about a year and a half and recently it has been getting quite hot.
It never used to have this issue before.
It has been overclocked for most of its time with me however with the oc disabled AND a custom fan curve on in battlefield 1 it can reach 75c. aswell as this recently i have cleaned the gpu
My first idea what caused it is that i got a CPU liquid cooler recently and thought that where it is situated at the rear of my case it couldn't exhaust the hot air. However i tried different orientations and positions and no change happened.
My second idea was that the gpu thermal compound had dried up so i replaced that and still no change.
This is really puzzling me and would appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks Ty;er
