Title: what is the ideal GPU temperature? Post by: brunoshady on July 12, 2011, 09:43:19 PM the ideal temperature for profit/benefit?
anybody knows? Title: Re: what is the ideal GPU temperature? Post by: Lexiko on July 12, 2011, 09:54:47 PM There is nothing ideal in this world )))) I think 0 degree is might be ideal temperature for any gpu. ;D
I trying to hold it between 70 and 75 deg cels. Title: Re: what is the ideal GPU temperature? Post by: xane on July 12, 2011, 10:05:14 PM Ideal: GPU (+VRAM) Temp == Ambient Temp
Not exactly practical though. Title: Re: what is the ideal GPU temperature? Post by: syllogyst on July 14, 2011, 04:53:52 AM Like Lexiko mentioned, there is no ideal GPU temp. While mining, temperature doesn't affect hashing speed, unless it is extremely high like 100 Celsius or more. As a general rule of thumb, you risk damaging components in the long term if running the GPU at a temperature constantly above 80 Celsius.

Post by: The_JMiner on July 14, 2011, 06:00:48 AM From what I understand you want to keep them below 75' C any higher and you can suffer damage to your video card. You may not damage it in the near term with higher temps than this but you will probably shorten the life span of the video card .
Title: Re: what is the ideal GPU temperature? Post by: Maxim Gladkov on July 14, 2011, 08:13:18 AM I've read somewhere, that every 10°C above 80°C will decrease your graphic cards lifetime twice.
So if it 10 years normally: - 90°C will make your VGA's lifetime 5 years - 100°C — 2 year and 6 months - 110°C — 1 year and 3 months - 120°C — 6.5 months - etc. Title: Re: what is the ideal GPU temperature? Post by: mastergamer on July 14, 2011, 09:50:00 AM you cant look on the gpu temp and calculate how long you whole card will work.
Remember, cpu and gpu are nearly imortal. There are other parts that will fail first. Back in HD4870 times, there were cooling solutions which garanted a gpu temp undr 60°C, but many cards died within the first week. Why? Vram overheaded.... |
