PoE2 is melting my GPU
|
I have got a 3090 RTX Bykski and my CPU (AMD Ryzen 9 5950X is together in a EKwater cooling loop with the gfx card... This game causes my cpu to go insanely high because of gpu going high.
I am playing at 1440p high settings... But decided to go with upscaling and low on all settings and limit to 60 fps and apply culling. Because this game is too demanding. |

Still melting over here -_-
CPU100+ GPU98+ smh |

"GPU being utilized 95% or 100% isn't a bad thing. Neither are these temperatures. All within spec. If you're concerned, get a better case or set a fps limit. I bet you're letting it blast beyong your monitors refresh rate. |

dude want 10fps and 10% gpu usage ? epic !
lock your max fps ingame and it will heat less (and UV your gpu will help too) |

masssive temprature spikes on my 4070ti started today 26-12

Literally just exited the game to look this up. 4090 with a 7950X3D and just melting.
I even capped the fps to 140 -- which is insane because I thought the 240+ fps I was getting was indicating part of the problem, but no, everything is STILL MAXED after dropping 100 FPS (according to nvidia). Crazy. |

If you start getting thermal throttling, make sure there is enough cooling for your parts; blow out dust from filters, make sure you have enough intake fans and check if your CPU cooler is adequate.
All hardware is designed to run at 100% at all times and if temp limits are reached, they will throttle down automatically. |

i posted this on reddit and have had a few people with various hardware report mostly the same thing.
so, a few days ago (maybe Saturday?) i started having GPU (4090 strix) temps spiking, but ONLY when there are large amounts of fire effects on the screen (like, the sun priest boss, and parts of blackjaw). and since my ranger currently runs flame wall with spell cascade...if i have more than the 3 on the ground, or if a mob has a fire affix, temps spike, fans scream, and i get annoyed/concerned. here is what i have tried so far: rolled back the drivers for the GPU: nope. lowered my settings: nope. changed the GPU fan curves: nope. literally overrides them. reinstalled windows (didn't think it would really help): nope. no other game or benchmark spikes the temps like the fire in PoE2. I have noticed today, that lightning effects (lightning arrow and lightning rod) don't seem to spike the temps. BUT, the on-death ground effect of rares (maybe elites? the yellow mobs) make the temps spike if it's mostly on the screen when it happens. if i move away...no spike. also tried my frost sorc, and the frost bolt and frost wall also cause spikes. and i have the shadows and lighting set to "low" @ 1440P with Vsync on. the odd part is, with any monitoring software i run, it NEVER registers the temps higher than the low-mid 70's. but the fan speed (93% on the default curve) suggests it's getting to around the mid to upper 80's. REALLY hope this is fixed soon or i'm billing them for the cost of my card and anxiety every time i hear my fans ramp up to 100% lol |

My rtx 3060ti heats up to 80+ when there are a lot of mobs or effects from skills or fire areas on the map... Please fix this or give more flexible graphics settings to players. Thank you |

so many white knights defending the game when its clearly in a bad shape atm.
