I am a Gigabyte GTX 580 owner since 2 weeks. Things run really hot here aswell but it tops out at ~83C with 60-65% fanspeed after I rearranged my case fans.
I tried to figure out what caused the 99% usage but the only thing i noticed was the more options I played with the more I filled up my video ram.. This game is like running furmark or something! |

if you want to get for example 50% gpu-load you will get half of framerate. Do you understand now?

I dont know if it works quite like that however with ROF on max settings I see GPU usage fluctuate between 40-70 percent and I stay at my vsync lock of 60 FPS regardless.

it is a bit silly to think constant max load is an exception in games. The high temp comes from heavy usage of all gpu ressources, not primarily from high gpu-load. There is a difference. Its wrong to discuss the high temp problem as a bug of the game..

so your saying that even though i have my card over clocked as far as it can be that it still should not be at %100 load on the GPU?

Where's the connection between an OC'd GPU and the load applied by a game? |

OK Nigelmcelwee, last time I told you

I admit I got a bit worried.... ![]() SLI fix is at: http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthread.php?t=23199 (Did not have time to make a long test and see where the temperature stabilised) EDIT: After some tests, my GPU temperature remains constant 88°C this is good enough and within specs so no worries. But, if I open the case and the side fan does not push fresh air to the GPUs' fans, temp will jump above 93° immediately! So streamlining the fresh air inside your case guys, especially if you run SLI or triple-SLI configurations will be something to cautiously watch guys! 3840x1024 desktop, 3072x1024 game, far right my GPUs % and temp ![]() 3840x1024 desktop, 3072x1024 game, far right my GPUs % and temp ![]() ~S~ PS.

Maybe not with the anomaly that is CoD, but without vsync the GPU should work at 100% to pump out as many frames per second possible.
The OP could try enabling Vsync to limit his FPS, that might give the GPU a break. Otherwise, take everyone's advice and your rig should look something like this: ![]() lol ![]() |
