Re: Folding@Home software causing extremely high temps
It sounds like you've just got more heat in your case than you can remove with your current fan configuration. Easiest solution, does the side of your case have a large vent area? Put a box fan blowing in that area :). Long term solution, sounds like you need more air flow in your case. If that sid...

Re: Folding@Home software causing extremely high temps
I can tell you how to reduce CPU folding. (GPU folding is not as configurable in F@H, there are vendor utilities you can use to under clock your GPU for less heat) In the lower right in the taskbar should be a F@H molecule icon, click it. (you may need to click an Up Arrow icon ^ to see it) the sec...

Re: Folding@Home software causing extremely high temps
It sounds from your description that you have intake fans, then aio cooler? So your hot air from cooler is passing through case? I'd set it to run the opposite way so the air from rad vents straight out. I have a large case, aio cooler on top, 2 gpus, front has 2 intake, bottom 2 intake, 1 intake o...

Re: Folding@Home software causing extremely high temps
You can throttle down the folding power to light or Medium the projects will still finish just not as fast. I also run a RTX 2080ti, this a very hot card when running hard like this, especially with a serious CPU pumping out heat. So cool down your case, remove the sides or similar. If this doesn't...

Re: Folding@Home software causing extremely high temps
Hey Doodler and welcome to the forum! That's an exceptional gaming rig there. For Folding@home, the most powerful piece is the GPU because the 2080TI is incredibly powerful for Folding@home workunits. I think your best solution might be to reduce the utilization of your CPU, but keep full use of yo...

Folding@Home software causing extremely high temps
Hi there, My specs: i9 9900k 16 gb 2666 Mhz RAM RTX 2080Ti When folding with my CPU, I noticed that temps reach a very high 85C + , often touching 90C. This is way too hot to be normal so I stopped the process immediately. When folding with my GPU, temps hit around 79 - 80C max, which is bearable bu...
