Hi, just a quick one as I am abit unsure on this, I bought a full system from OCUK maybe 2-3 months ago, been with me 6-8 weeks, I've noticed the 7900 XTX is idling around 60C, theres 3 big front case fans, 3 exhaust on top from the AIO on the CPU (Which is sitting around 32C idle) looking on the AMD Utility now its saying GPU 62C, Junction Temp 70, and the PC is just on, running 2 x 1440P screens but one screen with Prime Video, 1 with this page, even if I close everything the idle temp pon the GPU isn't running below 58C, its a cool-ish room, not near any heat sources, under the desk but elevated slightly.

Any ideas or am I overthinking?

Thanks!
 
whats the power draw, its known issue rdna3 with multi displays and high power draw

Would that be "Total board Power" in the AMD Adrenalien software? Thats edging between 114-118W

yup they still have this issue since release using multiple displays = high power draw

I dont have one so not sure if any workaround you will have to search or someone else to reply here
 
Have you tried unplugging one of the monitors to see if it goes down to normal?

(My XT idles at ~32 degrees with the fans off if nothing is open/happening, with 1x 1440p monitor).

Yup it's the multi-monitor thing, still drawing a lot of power at idle. Not really sure it's fixable on the 7000-series or they'd have done it already...

how have they not fixed this since launch ? I use dual displays and this would put me off

disconnect one of the displays see what difference it makes

Thanks guys, I wasn't aware of this problem, i'll try unplugging one later and checking drivers again, if this is the cause its a real pain in the whoopsie hole!
 
Updated firmware to latest from last month, GPU 51C, Junction 60C Power Draw around 101W, so better but thats still with 2 displays.

Will try 1 later and report back!
 
Over 100w is what the initial reviews showed for multi monitor.

Since then though, later reviews for AIB's have showed multi monitor to be in the 40's watt wise.

So they must have fixed it somewhat at some point.
 
Almost back to where it was!

glad im not sat on high refresh multi monitor, current card on single monitor pulls 8w idle....i would be alarmed to see 60x while doing nothing too!

Is that with one monitor or two?

The intake temperature seems high and the Fan speed seems low considering what the GPU temp is. Not that I have one of these cards, so I may be talking bs.

\That is with 2, I'm also quite clueless hence going the OCUK system route!
