EvilAlex Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 0.6 version - overheat my GTX 580 (over 95 °C) why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boxelware Team koonschi Posted May 5, 2014 Boxelware Team Share Posted May 5, 2014 Usually your driver should prevent that. Have you overclocked your card? I have the same card and I don't have any problems. Should it persist, I suggest you adjust the space fogs to a lower level in the video settings. Turning Vsync on might help, too.

EvilAlex Posted May 5, 2014 Author Share Posted May 5, 2014 Vsync on - helped me with fogs at low level (~80°C, 80 fps) But fogs at normal (with Vsync) - 92 °C, 80fps May be fogs - is not optimized? Or my cooling system on gigabyte gtx580 is not optimal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boxelware Team koonschi Posted May 6, 2014 Boxelware Team Share Posted May 6, 2014 The fogs do eat up a lot of performance, but that's normal. That's why I added the slider. With modern graphics devices, you should not have to worry about temperature, anyways. They have built-in safety systems that will clock it down once the temperature gets too high. They may even cut power from your device in order to protect it. Maybe you have to clean your cooler fan or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvilAlex Posted May 6, 2014 Author Share Posted May 6, 2014 Maybe you have to clean your cooler fan or something? I will try to clean and oil the cooling system and post results. Maybe today. But game - is great, thank you! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boxelware Team koonschi Posted May 7, 2014 Boxelware Team Share Posted May 7, 2014 It's the same as yours - an NVidia GTX 580. Mine reaches temperatures up to 80° - 85° C, which is absolutely ok. You shouldn't have to worry about your GPU temperature, as long as you didn't overclock it or didn't change your cooling device or anything on your card. Before it gets too hot your graphics device should shut down to prevent damage. If it doesn't your device might be broken. But I'm not a hardware specialist - I'm a programmer. Edit: BTW: It says here that the maximum temperature of the GTX 580 is 97°C. http://www.geforce.com/hardware/desktop-gpus/geforce-gtx-580/specifications Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boxelware Team koonschi Posted May 7, 2014 Boxelware Team Share Posted May 7, 2014 I just tested - In a heavily foggy sector I get 75°C on Linux at max. There might be something wrong with your cooler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm have heavy problem with my cooling system on videocard. Thanks for help. Trying to fix it, but 2 of 3 coolers are not rotating with properly. Will test temp with repaired cooling system.
