Indeed. On the plus side, the temps only staying in the roughly 60-80°C means less physical stress due to thermal expansion. That aspect would be much worse if the VRAM would go down to the mid 45s, only to then go up to 80°C and back down to the 40s. lol

Thanks for that suggestion, checked all screws and tried pressing/pulling on different point did anything, but that thing is built like a tank, nothing moves and all screws are tight. It was worth a shot, though. I relocated the SSD from underneath the GPU, didn't seem to help too much with the...

Yeah, it's the OC Edition. I don't think there is a non OC TUF, but I'm not sure. It does have a dual bios. Was set to P (for performance, I guess) by default, but it also has a Q (quiet) mode that doesn't look appealing, especially with the temps as they are. The fans are really quiet in P mode...

I can tell that the cooler assembly is pretty much identical to the 6800XT and 6900XT variant of the ASUS TUF without taking it apart. There are enough little gaps to look through most of the stuff and determine that. And from the research I've done the whole heat pipe and fin stack assembly is...

I have been running HWiNFO basically all day the last couple days, that's the data I was referring to during my posts. Didn't have a screenshot of those days so this one relatively fresh after boot is all I could offer at the moment. But all the metrics fall in line with what I experienced the...

Just disabled SAM in the BIOS, doesn't seem the affect the temperatures at all. :( Other than those temps I really like this card. It undervolts fairly well and can even be pushed to the max OC the official AMD Software allows without becoming unstable. Coil whine is also at a minimum. With my...

VRAM usage ranges from a couple 100 MB during browsing/watching YT to several GB when gaming, nothing odd there. VRAM clock hovers from 2MHz to 900MHz during normal browsing and is ranging from roughly 1300MHz to 2000MHz during video playback, this is where it approaches 70°C. Gonna disable SAM...

Thanks for your reply. Yes the backplate is getting hot during load. If I disable the 0-fan and let it run normally all the time (roughly 800-900 rpm) in idle VRAM temps drop to the low 50s but I've never seen it in the 40s, even after a fresh cold boot. I'm using a Ryzen 3700X and SAM is...

Greetings everyone! Maybe one of you can answer me regarding my concerns with my ASUS TUF RX 6800. It seems that according to HWinfo that the GPU Memory Junction Temperature is always a lot higher than my GPU Hot Spot and when compared to other RX 6000 series GPUs that I found data on online...
