I want to limit the frame rate for some games to prevent the GPU from overheating. In some games you can't set the frame rate satisfactorily… I also burned my fingers on the keyboard because the laptop was so hot, the GPU was at 50-100%. Shouldn't they throttle or otherwise protect themselves so that the GPU lasts for a few more decades?
Anyway, it worries me, I'm not sure how hot it can get?
I thought of a program that throttles the GPU at critical temperatures and limits the frame rate of individual games.
My fan sometimes makes "hard disk-like" noises, does that reduce the speed? As far as I know, you don't have to oil laptop fans, do you?
Your gpu can't break itself because if it gets too hot it will automatically cycle down.
How hot does it get when she clocks down Do flames come out then? If you burn yourself at 80% …
The degree between uncomfortably hot and pleasantly warm is very low. This is all in the range between 40 and 50 ° C. With the MSI Afterburner you can reduce the maximum temperature of the GPU so that it throttles earlier and with the accompanying program "Riva Tuner Statistics Server" you can limit the FPS.
Does that cost performance when running while playing?
Costs some CPU power (you are in the GPU limit anyway) and if you limit your FPS you of course have less FPS, hold as many as set.
And if you let the GPU throttle earlier, then you won't have as much GPU performance anymore!
Here is a video of how you set up the programs.
You burn yourself at a temperature of 50 ° C. A GPU can heat up to 100 ° C and temperatures of 80-90 ° C are normal even in desktops!
And no, of course no flames come out of there
Mmh I don't trust this, there's certainly a lot of malware in the package, and the garage expires if you use overclocking programs (?). It would be better from Nvidia or something 🤔
Yes that may be but I don't touch the GPU core, so icg think outside on the keyboard it should be significantly colder than inside on the GPU core?
The program is from MSI itself, a renowned motherboard and GPU manufacturer, there's no malware inside, I also use the program.
Theoretically, the warranty will only be lost when overclocking, since you can't prove it and you also do not overclock, but only reduce the temperature limit, which is positive for the runtime of the GPU, that is not a problem.
Unfortunately, Nvidia does not have such a program
As I said, you burn yourself from 50 ° C, your GPU will be at 100 ° C and your keyboard below 60 ° C
Mmh but does not leave any "feel" or errors in eg. Exotic hardware (which is not uncommon for laptops!)
No how? It is software. You are not violating your guarantee. However, with such a bad laptop design, where the keyboard gets so hot, I would really consider taking the guarantee
Yes, but everything melts at 100C, which would normally have to be clocked down at 80
No.
I'm sorry to say that, but that's nonsense. Silicon does not melt at 100 ° C, no conventional CPU or GPU clocks down at 80 ° C, except maybe the Ryzen 1st Gen X CPUs, which had a strange offset that was removed in the 2nd gen, because they are unnecessary.
The voltage converters on your mainboard get up to 125 ° C and still nothing burns.
The AMD Radeon RX 5700XT has even reached 108 ° C in AMD's own design and is still alive
The GPU throttles when it gets too hot, nothing jerky, and it is actually not too hot.
If you burn your fingers on your laptop, this is a design flaw on the part of the manufacturer or a defect, but not a hardware problem.
Your laptop won't last for decades. With a lot of luck, a laptop that is really used at full load will last 10 years, and in many cases this is very elaborate.
How hot it can get depends entirely on the components I don't know. For example, you can Use the CPUID hardware monitor - it's free.
The frame rate can be limited with AMD as well as with Nvidia cards in the driver. Just google it.
I can't estimate your noises from here, if the laptop gets so warm, the fan will certainly go full throttle, that would be a good thing to hear.
Nothing had to oil.
You're welcome.
Where can I see the GPU temperature?
Did I think the fan was "a bit old", they didn't want to change it…
See point 4.
I have hwinfo aver there's nothing. Is there a sensor at all?
Drive Temperature 28ºC
PCH temperature 33 ° C
CPU package 34ºC
CPU IA Cores 33 ° C
CPU GT Cores (Graphics) 34 ° C
Core 0 33 ° C
Core 1 33 ° C
Core Max 32ºC
If you have an extra GPU it is below in GPU, you have copied the CPU data to me. If you don't have a GPU and the CPU does the graphics, what you see is there. However, of course, some power had to be called up to see the temperatures under load.
The graphics card, processor, mainboards etc. Are all so safe these days that nothing can really happen.
Yes ne it is apparently, as I just found out, only to be seen when it is on, so nothing else can be accessed from hwinfo (or something like that)? But there's current 0ºC Min 0ºC Average 0ºC Max 0ºC
Ok thanks was that different at the turn of the millennium?
By today I mean this century.
