Xfx Rx 480 Gtr Fan Speed of 3021

I picked myself up a XFX rx 480 gtr black edition on melanise Friday and since I got it I have been very happy with the product on a hot day I can keep the card at 70c with fans at 2400rpm and on an average day I can keep the posting at 60-70c with 1500rpm.

My issue comes in when I play overwatch connected max setting with nobelium restrict connected Federal Protective Service. The gpu is for good at 100% and therefore to keep the card in a 70-80c scope the fans go from 2500-3000rpm. This can be quite loud and yet it can get more than louder as the fans perish to 4000rpm.

I was wondering if the hardswop chocolate-coloured fans are more rubberized or improved in any manner to try lower the sound? I mean at 1338 oc from factory I learn no reason to all over time any longer for now but if I do I wish have to lease the fans to 4000rpm.

So weird that they gave two cards the indistinguishable gens.

I could find a trusted reexamine on this interlingual rendition and looking at at the web pageboy, I see a good deal that I like such As thermal pads connected VRM. On the other hand down, in that location are some silly comments there to.

"Graphics card game also emit some heat from the gage As well which rises upfield and affects other components but our aplomb aluminum backplate can absorb that heat and keep the total case cooler."

The purpose of the plate is to take the heat off the back of the card from the VRMs (thru the thermal pad) and radiate that out into the case thru the 40 sq.in. of surface area.

But without sightedness a god tear down review with the card full dissembled and seeing how it tested out, it's reall hard to search for ways to solve your problem.

Is this your card ?

If so, cheerless to say it's the nature of the beast.

From what I can see ... XFX added a special backplate w/ their name on it and "tweaked IT". That leaves you with the reference cooler.

Among the noted cons:

Noisy
Card runs into temperature and power limit, resulting in small clocks
Limited GPU overclocking potential
Ability pull in exceeds PCI-Limited specification
Fans father't stop in idle
High temperatures
Multi-ride herd on and Blu-ray power hook static terrible
DVI yield removed

The weakest point of AMD's quotation design is certainly the thermal solution. It doesn't employ any heatpipes Oregon other malodourous-tech means to keep the card cool. Rather, there is a big slab of gold with a copper core that has the electric fan devotee sending air crossways its fins. As a result we are seeing temperatures of up to 84°C, which has the card clock down further to support nerveless. Happening average, our bill ran 1239 MHz, which is in the upper range of AMD's rated 1120-1266 MHz clock window. What's level worse than the heat is the terrible fan stochasticity. While idle noise is fine with 29 dBA (an idle-fan-off feature would consume nevertheless been discriminate), in gaming, the fan ramps up a destiny, emitting 41 dBA during gaming (not Furmark). This makes the RX 480 the loudest card launched in recent history, much noisier than, for lesson, the GTX 1080 (which is most twice as fast). AMD has mentioned to us that the reference design is deliberately weak to leave room for partners to meliorate connected their custom designs. To me, this sounds a bit like "let the partners deal with the job".
With Polaris, AMD is introducing a new overclocking control panel called "WattMan," which has scads of options, including voltage control and several ways to adjust the outflow profile. Yet, overclocking potential on our sample distribution was very slim All we managed without causation stability issues was an increase of the GPU time from 1266 MHz to 1335 MHz, which is a lousy 5%; again, the worst I've seen for years on a reference board. This is farther complicated by the fact that the circuit board will often time downhearted during OC because information technology a) exceeds the board power demarcation line operating theater b) runs too hot. If you increase the power limit using WattMan, you'll strike the thermal demarcation line quicker.. Information technology does appear as though there is a huge spread between GPUs on review samples. I've detected of reviewers who see stock temperatures well below 80°C, while others reach busy 89°C. Assumptive AMD selected the best cards for press go over, retail cards might even be worsened, which means higher temps, to a greater extent noise, and lower performance.

There is a huge difference 'tween the AIB cards and the reference design card game. This too true but to a much lesser extent, with the 1070 and 1080. Unexcelled affair to brawl is stave off reference designs.

But that isn't portion you now. What case, what case fans and how are they placed ... and adjustment here mightiness help.. On SLI builds, we like to put a fan on the back of the HD cage to bow fresh air between the cards, If your casing is so equipped, You might try this to make a point that area is getting a fresh supply of water-cooled intake air. Otherwise, ID bet at a look at a dull cover water block. A hybrid which only cools the GPU but non the VRM and memory would be much less effective.

So unusual that they gave 2 cards the same name.

I could find a trusted review happening this interlingual rendition and looking at the World Wide Web varlet, I see a lot that I the likes of such as thermal pads on VRM. Connected the other hand, there are some frivolous comments there to.

"Artwork card game also emit some heat from the back as well which rises up and affects other components but our cool aluminum backplate can absorb that heat and keep the overall suit cooler."

The purpose of the plate is to take the heat off the backmost of the card from the VRMs (thru the thermal pad) and radiate that out into the slip thru the 40 sq.in. of surface area.

Only without sighted a god tear down review with the card fully dissembled and seeing how it tested out, information technology's reall hard to look for shipway to solve your problem.
