Is it ok that my Titan X (Pascal) runs at 84 degrees while gaming

[Supra_Hadouken]

I have it on power limit 100% and temp limit 84 degrees

I have a slight OC on it, but as soon as i start gaming it reaches 84 and stays there.

I'm used to custom AIB cards that run at 67 degrees while gaming, this scares me a little being £1100.

Perfectly normal for Nvidia's reference cooler. That's around where they all target. If it does make you uncomfortable, you could either lower the temperature target with something like Afterburner (at the expense of throttling), or set a more aggressive custom fan curve (at the expense of noise).

Mine runs at 86-88c on a taxing game after a while when overclocked to the max. Just make sure to set the max temp limit to 90c as you don't want the core speed to throttle. It's fine at those temps.

That's good to know, i really don't want the fans to spin faster than 60% as it's too loud for me.

I'm getting a steady 1950mhz with the settings i have.

Wow 60% fan speed. Mine run at 75-80% speed to maintain 86c when overclocked.

The cooler struggles. These smaller nodes get hot real quickly. I'm waiting on EK, but meanwhile...lol

For some reason it's started to creep upto 86 degrees even tho I have a 84 temp limit. Not changed anything either.

£1100 and you end up with a noisy card and high temps. I don't understand why nvidia don't make some adjustments to the cooling to encourage more people to step up from the 1080.

 

[Poneros]

Why would they? No one's going to be deterred form buying it with the current cooling, so that just means fatter margins for Nvidia.

Because they're completely different price points. No-one steps up by paying more than double unless they were already eyeing up a Titan. At least no-one sound in mind.

Don't get me wrong, I'd love one but they're way out of my price range.

Agreed, they could not put a fan on it at all, and just supply one of these in the box with it to cool it, and they would still sell by the shedload.
