I have this one ssd out of 5 that apparently has a different temperature depending on the boot. One time it's reported 5°c colder and the next boot it's running 5°c warmer. Meanwhile that specific drive (a simple data volume) is 99% idle, yet some boots it gets temp reported same as the ssd...

and to return to the same problem again after the first reboot. Another proof of what a joke those big companies really are, they just get lucky their shit even works.

A small update to this issue, By chance i discovered that the clockspeeds remain at idle (350) instead of staying at max (1300). How i got to this is because windows keeps reverting new intel igpu drivers to old versions, the only thing i did different this time instead of running the intel...

oh crap, i guess my eyes worn't wide enough yet, after opening them a bit more i noticed my obvious mistake. Apparently i mixed up some values since there are more than one. MY BAD. No, everything seems to indeed calculate correctly, i must have had a brain seizure or something.:oops:

So what i was wondering here, i have a case of gfx card oddities as for example memory power usage in watts: when gpu memory is at 1.252 Volts and 1.771 Amps then should the Watts not be 2.217 Watts instead of the 0.000Watts that gets reported by hwinfo64 ? odd stuff, and that's not the only...

New hwinfo64 , new amd driver 23.9.1, the problem still remains the same, hwinfo reports a gpu memory usage that does not come down ever, only grows. It just goes up until the pc is rebooted. This only happens with games, when i run cinebench 24 for instance it takes all 24GB vram and when...

Alright, i did send amd a bugreport about this too when i noticed this. Strange though that windows taskmanager reports that same value but there it is correct... Maybe you are just using a wrong value. It would not surprise me seeing how many values hwinfo tries to show, in the past it was...

this is with a 7900xtx. today i did not run hwinfo64 during gaming but started it afterward and i got this result: GPU memory usage... windows taskmanager reported about 10 Gig vram used during gaming and went back to normal after the game was closed. Something strange with hwinfo64. Using...

on the 7900 series it is GDDR6 and not 6X.

So i started playing starfield with hwinfo64 open on the side. After 4.5 hours the game crashes to desktop and when i look at hwinfo64 it reports a gpu memory usage of 199,xxx GB, yes 200 GB and it remains in use according to hwinfo64. Meanwhile windows taskmanager reports a normal vram usage...

means the hardware (gddr6) is eihter being pushed beyond their design specs , just because they can. otherwise the chip packaging would be the best insulating material humanity ever discovered. As if the GPU temperatures are not measured the same way : internal. So that tooltip is worthless to...

Thank you Martin, I am dealing with Intel concerning their iGPU drivers since their latest two versions made the iGPU clock stuck at 1300MHz, it may be a conflict because of running both dGPU & iGPU. I am also dealing with MSI since their Bios contains a very outdated Intel management Firmware...

Hello, I have attached a screenshot of hwinfo64 running for 46 hours and a few small items seem to be odd. Namely the GPU HBM minimum temperature (1.0°C), The PSU 3.3V Power usage minimum (0.000W) and the PSU 12V power minimum (0.000W) values. As can be seen those values are not quite right...

does any of you have windows task manager running when it happens ?

Another follow up, with a new cpu, new intel driver, new bios with updated cpu microcode, the results are the same, igpu gets reported as being full clockspeed always. The other values like power usage seem to be in order this time, just not downclocking. If the cpu dies again within days, i'll...
