    Hi all,

    Not sure if its normal but I've re pasted loads of times and now I've used IC Diamond to try and get lower temperatures which for GPU0 is working quite well but even then I'm not sure of these are OK.

    Unigine valley around 8 minutes on

    GPU 1 - 80 Degrees
    Gpu 2 - 88 Degrees

    Can anyone compare?

    Update,

    Using HWINFO64 I've forced fans to max RPM 4500

    GPU 1 is now 74 Degrees
    GPU 2 is now 81 Degrees

    why they don't kick in like this normally without hwinfo is beyond me.

    I see from your signature your using slv7 vbios. I found that my pc ran hotter with those vbios, or my system would just shut off. I use prema vbios and never go above 75-78c while gaming Witcher3 or GTA V for hours. I don't OC my rig for gaming.
