![]() Under full load, the drivers will try to not fry your GPU, but the GPU certainly runs too hot at anything over 75-80C! If you have an intermittent performance demand on your card, water cooling is offering a better solution. The performance penalty (~5-10%) is well worth the reduction in heat (20-40C lower temps) and power consumption (25-40% lower per card). I’m not sure why Nvidia tunes for maximum performance, instead of highest efficiency on the RTX line, as these cards run very hot (inside a case), and consume a lot of power. Together with a fine tuned overclock, you can get near to 95% of performance, at 60-75% of the power consumption. When heat goes lower, the driver will increase the boost frequency. I lower the value by y watts, if the ambient temperature gets closer to 55F. I raise the value by x watts, if the ambient temperature gets closer to 85-90F. It’ll still throttle the speed, but the card will run much cooler.įor reference, I have an open test bench, with an environment temperature of somewhere between 60-75F, and I can get 90-95% performance out of any RTX card running them at the following settings: GPU, GPU 2: Running watt +x/-y watts I’m not sure where you can enter those values, but it doesn’t work in my terminal.ĭepending on why you use the GPU, if you have constant high GPU usage (like heavy gaming, or folding or crunching), the best thing you can do, is lower the TDP of the card. ![]() Nvidia-settings -a ‘/GPUTargetFanSpeed=100’Įdit: I see you used something similar, try “GPUTargetFanSpeed=” instead of “GPUCurrentFanSpeed=”, which is my guess why you got a read-only error! ![]() Nvidia-settings -a ‘/GPUFanControlState=1’ I’m also annoyed by cards that start thermal throttling before fan speed reaches 100%.Īfter setting cool-bits to 28 (4 or 31 might work too), you can set fan speed via: ![]()
