Windows 10: GTX 950 Heats up to 99 degrees when gaming

But do they run ? Yes ?

 

You overclocking this GPU ?

 

Yes, on AUTO and Manually they run but it still heats up to 99 degrees

 

No, the motherboard is running in Turbo mode by default from 3.4ghz - 4ghz Turbo

Cannot overclock my CPU as far as i have seen as I wanted to for the last 2 days and its a core i7 6700 not the 6700k

 

Is Stryx a EVGA Brand ?

 

ASUS which is a good brand to. Think K version is the one for overclock, mine is a 5820K but i do not overclock.

 

Graphics cards in Australia are way more expensive. The GTX 980ti is $1200 here on any brand its over $1000

 

If card is getting that hot fans should be going fast to cool it, but controlling it with afterburner i am not too familiar with using something for a fan profile. Buying one here and shipping it to you will be an expense to i think.

 

Yeah, I'm thinking of buying one from USA and seeing hw much it will cost to ship as its way more cheaper!! Thanks for help

See , I want to game now in 3D and play Crysis 3 in 3D but scared about it frying my card.

If My card does get to hot and dies will it affect anything else on the MB?

I am only new to building PC's

 

This i am not sure of if it will damage other components, only think of the PCI slot and possibly Motherboard parts. How are CPU temps at the time ?

Crysis even though in 3D is an older game, but i would lay off it for now. Want to try it like i said without MSI, but do not play games for now.
I have played pretty new graphic intense games with my GTX 970 without any issues.
I have went through many different cards over the years, not from being dead just upgrading.

Not sure how overseas charges are, but this company has decent prices and reliable if you go that way Computer Parts, Laptops, Electronics, and More - Newegg.com

 

Thank You for all your help

So you think my card is faulty?

 

If fans work with or without afterburner. Usually the case the card and if nothing else is overheating. Drivers would not cause this, only dust and dirt, bad fan or faulty card. Newegg ships to Au. Your Welcome

 

Do not think that card you have has a good rating even though ASUS, saw similar one but GTX 970 was some complaints made in reviews

 

It may be that heatsink for the gpu didn't get any/ enough/ too much thermal compound.
Because you say it heats to 99 with fans running full. If it were older you could take it apart and do it over, but seeing as it is only a month old... RMA it.

 

Good thought, before it BBQ's *092
