I've had my 1080 since like October and that whole time it has been watercooled. It's a Palit Gamerock premium and it initially had its own loop in a Thermaltake X9 (360 + 240 radiator - was SLI 970's) , since then its been in an INWIN 303 which has just been revamped post my Ryzen 1700 switch.
So here's the set up:
1700 @ 3.95ghz + Ek Supremacy
1080GTX @ ~ 2050mhz (Palit boost - not modded) with EK 1080 block
Alphacool XT45 360mm crossflow rad + 3x Thermaltake Riing 12 fans
Alphacool UT60 240mm rad + 2x EK Varder
Alphacool XT30 120mm crossflow rad + 1x EK Varder
So, quite a lot of cooling for CPU + GPU. The Ryzen temps are fine 20C idle and 40 - 45C loaded. Ever since I've had the 1080 I've seen it get as high as 63C which I figured was fine looking at air cooled cards and it's clockspeed. Today I commented on a thread where the guy seemed to have the tubes connected to all 4 ports (both sides of each) his GPU and I offered advice about using one tube to each side as per EK. Anyway, that wasn't the issue, another guy popped up and said he had 1080 SLI that never went above low 30's. I initially thought BS (although I didn't say that ) as my temps on a big loop can get to almost double, so I decided to look up the subject, it seems he may be right (not an issue). I've seen people saying that 45C should be the sort of max load temp for a 1080.
So here's some pictures of the loops.
The initial one (TT X9) - White loop was for the 1080 (this is actually a picture from the 970 SLI, but it stayed the same for the 1080) - Again I seen 63C
Build now:
The block has been replaced since the first picture as it had an internal leak, so it has been reseated, I'm pretty sure that aint the issue anyway as I would expect it to get a lot higher.
Anyone have any ideas what my problem maybe?
What temps are others getting?
Thanks
