After Inserting a new Arc a750 into my system
My i5 12400 starts getting high temps hence bottlenecking performance
Any suggestions on fixing this?

[junior lava]

can you send a picture of the case?

[quaint root]

maybe thermal paste ran out?

check it just in case

if it only happens with the a750 then idk

[dawn rampart]

I just got them new

The case pretty cheap so idk

3 fans intake
2 fan exhaust

[dawn rampart]

Well I got them new
The gpu I just placed ystd and it keeps getting thermal throttles

[junior lava]

what temps are you reaching

[dawn rampart]

About 65-75+

[junior lava]

that's normal

no thermal throttling

[dawn rampart]

But my fps drops

And idle gets to 48-55

[junior lava]

how? it shouldn't if it doesn't thermal throttle (which at those temps, it doesn't)

[dawn rampart]

In CS:GO
Average it gets 380fps
And when the fan sound turns loud
It drops about 270 fps

[junior lava]

doesn't really say if its thermal throttling, use monitoring software and see if its thermal throttling or lowering clocks

and those temps are normal when using the stock cooler

[dawn rampart]

Oh alright
What about the fps drop
I want the gpu to give out the best performance possible

It's more weird when I play Roblox I drop below 160 fps

[junior lava]

do you have any other examples than csgo and roblox?

[dawn rampart]

Valorant gets 280+ fps

It just runs worse than my old 1660 ti

1660 ti gets 330 fps vsg

Avg*

[junior lava]

depends on the game really

[dawn rampart]

Is it cause the drivers?

Or the game compatibility

[junior lava]

do you have the latest drivers

I mean its first gen, game compatability mainly

[dawn rampart]

WHQL driver

The latest

[junior lava]

should be fine

and I would recommend getting something else than the stock cooler

if you are worried about it overheating

space seems kind of dense so I would get measurements to make sure the air cooler fits

[dawn rampart]

Suggest me some coolers

[junior lava]

hyper 212 is good ig

[dawn rampart]

But mines LGA 1700

[dawn rampart]

Thanks

[junior lava]

make sure it fits

[dawn rampart]

One more question
Can 550w psu work well on arc a750
That might be the cause of fps drops but I'm not sure

[dense zephyr]

are the rear and top fan exhaust?

[dawn rampart]

Yup

[dense zephyr]

then how is the CPU cooler supposed to get cool air?

[dawn rampart]

With 3 intakes at the front

[dense zephyr]

well the two exhaust fans move the air right above the CPU cooler

Which is a down draft, so they all full air from the same area

[dawn rampart]

What should I do then? @dense zephyr
