Gamer76 Posted October 24, 2013 Posted October 24, 2013 Hi I've noticed my GTX680 went into overdrive and uses so much voltage and the temp went to 100degree. I have adjusted the fan to full to cool it down ...... So i thought it must have some dust in it.. I have removed it and cleaned it.. it wasnt much dust really , just a lil bit. I opened the outer case and see if insides ok. I noticed that R22 chip in the middle is missing or is that how it is ? The red cap at the top left side is leaking abit. This graphic card is only a year old.I have updated the EVGA software to make few adjustment to bring down the temp. but i dont really know whats right voltage, power target, GPU clock offset etc. I mainly use internet and youtube clips to watch ........ Sorry I didnt get to print screen the previous one when it went into overdrive .......... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
