Description

The GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) and VRAM (Video Random Access Memory) temperatures are observed over 90 Celsius in Arc Control OSD (On-Screen Display) when gaming.

Resolution

  • Avoid installing the chassis fan as all intake or exhaust.
  • To optimize the thermal dissipation, there must have air exchange in the chassis, which means both intake and exhaust.
  • Check the chassis manual for the recommended fan directions depend on the different chassis design.
  • The ideal fan directions are: top-exhaust, bottom-intake, front-intake, rear-exhaust.
