i have a asrock rx 6900xt and overclocked it a decent amount with an undervolt but 87 for a hotspot seems warm

  1. warm but not too hot… remember, throttling hotspot temp is 110 degrees… try to raise fans

    That’s normal for the air cooled variants.

    Bro my Gpu it is at 90°C all the time,it depends,what Gpu do you have?

    Just slightly too warm, if you could tune the fans a bit more, would be better, although not bad temps either.

    Don’t forget, what’s hot to the touch, doesn’t mean it’s hot for the electronics. Generally I try keep all components under 90* at most during serious loads. But generally with good turning and serious load it should go up to around 85* or so at most. Sweet spot being around 70* and less if possible.

    TLDR: increasing fan curve of the gpu would be a good choice, and/or adding more fans in the case and increasing their fan curve too would be beneficial, also make sure fan positioning is correct. You should be feeding the system enough air as well as having a good exhaust at the top somewhere, leaving enough room for intake, follow basic guides on the best fan setup if temperatures are your concern.

    Brother it gets harder to go from 90c to 110c if your cooler is dissipating heat .

    My card had a hotspot that was the same (89c), but even a gentle adjustment to the fan curve brought it down to 67c at max. It’s safe and fairly normal to operate at. I’d recommend just adjusting the fans a little more if you want to bring it down.

    Hotspot under 90 is very good. Anything over 100 is worrying. Core at 67 is barely warm.

    Check your memory temp though, you can enable it in the metrics section as well. Anything under 80 there is quite good. Its usually in the low/mid 80’s.

    20 delta seems normal for 6000 series. My 6700xt ranging from 10-20 delta too.

    Bruh my hotspot can go up to 100°C 💀

    It’s a very good temp, if that’s as high as you get. When I add +15% pwr my hotspot would be in the 90s.

    Looks like you may benefit from a repaste though, the hot spot is 20c hotter than the die

    Nah it’s alright, if you want to make it more efficient you should undervolt but don’t go too aggressive, go like – 30mv at first test a few games and see temps before and after/wattage, my 6700xt’s paste seem it got dried a bit so at 170w and 2000 rpm i get about 90 Hotspot and didn’t like it so after some undervolt to 1130mv it went down to around 85 somewhere like that which is safe temps
