Temperatures below 110C on your hotspot are basically safe. Below 100C is the comfort zone. Below 90C = overclocking party invitation. As far as you're...
Vendors do not care for outside of their own components. They find players responsible for that. I decided. I will take the GPU to service under warranty...
GPU hotspot temps are typically 10-20°C higher than the average GPU temp. Here Gamers Nexus tests the reference 6700XT card, with GPU temp in upper 70°s and tJ at mid 90°s. The fact that your hotspot is nearly 60°C over the GPU temp is concerning. It seems MSI may have improv...
The hotspot temperature marks the highest temp of your GPU. This could be your GPU processor, memory, or other graphics unit components. So, if the Memory temperature is higher than the GPU temperature, the hotspot will mark that temperature as the hotspot temperature. VRAM or memory can withs...
Hotspot temp throttling isn't the same as the throttling temp shown in MSI Afterburner. The throttling temp shown is for the core average temp. Hotspot follows some undisclosed undocumented rule. I've been at 95C on the hotspot with 90C MSI afterburner throttle point without throttling, be...
To check out this theory, you can check the GPU hotspot / junction temperature while generating in the AMD software on windows. If it reaches ~100°c, the GPU will throttle. I have setup and aggressive fan curve in the AMD software to avoid this. I also have reduced the power limit a...

Crazy. And these large GPU coolers keep their GPUs in the 65°C (edge temp) to 90°C (hotspot) range, much cooler than CPUs. This is not a fair comparison. Using a large cooler either air or water has much faster diminishing returns on a cpu compared to a gpu. Modern consumer ...
My Pulse 7800 XT stays in the high 80s with its hotspot temp even with a +15% power limit. I think its not suited to the 7800xt. Its vertically mounted and the GPU is very close to the CPU cooler. I think its created a hotter than usual spot in the middle of the card where ...
My card is vertically mounted and initially (with higher/default voltages) - the hotspot was close to a 100 which is not ideal. I wanted to try and reduce it, so i took the backplate off. I was thinking my giant 30cm fans directly below it would help. Turns out this made it worse...
