I got a new gaming PC 2 days ago. He has installed a Palit rtx 2080super x. This graphics card has only 1 small fan. I thought it was pretty weird. In any case, my case has a large fan at the back and from my AIO water cooling 2 240mm installed at the front. When gaming from Fortnite my GPU is sometimes only 86 degrees hot. Sometimes, however, 77 or 80. In normal operation, it is just 35 degrees hot. Is that OK. Does the GPU do any harm? I have too little fan (can no longer install)
I thank myself

According to the site, the temperature is only critical from 90 degrees. The GPU will shutdown itself if it runs too hot to prevent damage.
No wonder with the arrangement of the fans. The air comes warm into the housing through the AIO. The cooling design of the graphics card is not very efficient. Therefore, high temperatures are rather normal.
85 ° C is still a healthy upper limit.
Do you think I should send him back and buy a better one
These are not problematic temperatures for a GPU, by the way, these automatically throttle the clock if they get too hot, which means that you have less power at all, but modern chips do not break.
You only have one fan, because radial ventilation is no different, not a particularly good cooling concept if you have enough space and airflow in the housing, axial fans make more sense.
The temperature is actually fully clear.
Thanks a lot,
As far as I know, radial fans are there to transport the heat in the gpu outside
What did you pay for it?
I personally would not keep it
