Hey all,
A couple of things, I have seen a few postings about cgminer and checking out the temperatures that the GPUs are running at.
Usually it is about 75-80C? However, my GPUs are running quite hot between 95-99C?
1. What is the maximum acceptable temperature you should allow each GPU to run at?
2. How can I get my GPUs to run at a cooler temperature?
For question 2, I have following set up:
- Power Supply: Corsair AX1200i Digital ATX '80 Plus Platinum' Modular Power Supply
- GPU: 2 x Sapphire AMD R9 280X 3GB 384 Bit GDDR5 OC Full Retail Pci-E Graphics Card
(SAPPHIRE Dual-X R9 280X 3GB GDDR5 OC) 11221-00-40G
- CPU: AMD Piledriver FX-6 6300 @ 4.2GHz Six Core CPU
- Motherboard: Gigabyte 990FXA-UD3 AMD 990FX (Socket AM3+) DDR3 ATX Motherboard
- Memory: TeamGroup Elite Black 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C11 1600MHz Dual Channel Kit
- Cooler: Akasa AK-CC4013EP01 Nero 3 V2 Premier CPU Cooler
- Case: Lian Li PC-8NB Midi Case - Black
What suggestions can you make to improve things?
