Graphics cards are notorious for overheating after a year or 2 of solid use. The constant heating and cooling of the compound causes it to eventually harden and crack leading to inefficient transfer of heat from the GPU to the heatsink.
This tutorial will show you how to solve your overheating graphics card issues with minimal effort and cost.
NVIDIA cards tend to be more notorious for the overheating issues, however no card is safe or immune from shoddy thermal paste!

Great video. I did this same procedure to a friend's discarded HD 6870 about a year ago - it made a world of difference. (He gave me this card for free, believing it no longer worked.) In this card's case, the fan had also died - so I took the ghetto-tastic route of zip-tying a high-rpm 80mm fan to the plastic case. Noisy - but effective. Worked like a charm! It went from making horrible grinding noises (bad fan bearings), terrible performance, and dangerous temps (90+) to running like new. I saw temperature drops of over 30 degrees with the same load, and since the card no longer had to throttle just to keep from melting, my FPS jumped quite a lot as well. These days I'm running a newer card, but I still keep the little Frankenstein around to remind me what a difference a little human intervention and maintenance can make.
I like these old vids. It fun to see how far jay has come
What about replacing the thermal 'PADS'?
Great video! Just did this to my gpu, was getting 60C idle and about 95+ gaming.
Now temp are 35-40C idle and 70-80C gaming!
Thanks Jayztwocents!
your temps should never be 35-40 when idle 30c max even with worse case and air flow
whos here 2019😅
Yep
Yee
Ya hahaha
yeep
I'm here in 2019 with a brand new 2080ti ruining at 82°c 😞
Damn its awfully refreshing to see in 2021 that Jay made videos like these.
8 years later and this video is still a lifesaver.
Confirming.
My Second hand R9 280X ASUS had same issue-old-dried thermal compound and I fixed it same way and temps before and after were exactly the same. Mmmm it even went to 92C once....
3:45 - essence of the whole video.
Watching this in 2020 ROFL this channel gone a long way good job jay.
Hey Jay. Just wanted to thank you for this video as it helped me fix my GPU. Went from 78°C at 83% power to 67°C at 99%.
Go outside to smoke your cigs and your computers cooling system will thank you for it.
Even better, give up cigarettes!
Instead of smoking a cigarette, for a nice walk.

My graphics card has overheating problems. It runs over 90° in normal circumstances, and regularly my computer screen will go black and the GPU fan starts to blow full throttle. I've been doing some research on how to fix that problem and I found your video. As it happens, my GPU is a 4 year old NVidia GTX580, the exact same featured in this video. This is the perfect guide I was looking for. Now I have to gather the supplies I need for the operation... wish me luck.
So how did it went?
+lnstagib- DonTry (David) His house blew up, saw it on the news
Savage No it didn't. Haven't found time for the procedure yet.
ive got the same gtx 580
I'm having the exact same problem with the exact same video card. Did this end up working? I just ordered the supplies.
Thank you! I had an old GTX580 that kept overheating and this was the exact problem. After taking it apart and cleaning, re-applying the thermal paste, it's working just like new :)
This is cute how far you've come Jay. Still 10/10 content
Thermal pads??
Yeah, thermal pads. Almost all laptops with a dedicated GPUs have em
Louisarius Trollerlol I know, just not showing what was doing with them
He means: Why didn't Jay show video of how/where/why/where to unstall tgrm. They just SHOW UP indide (blue,..) as he's reassembling!
no big philosophy with this one...just put the new ones where the old ones were
EightSeven6 but how did he get all of the old thermal pad that was stuck on the components?
My rx 580 4gb msi armor is running at 85c on load and like 35-40 idle. ive only had it for like 4 months. anyone have any reccomendations!?!??!
omg the production quality has definitely improved. Still very informative
This looks so easy. I'm totally going for that thermal paste upgrade tomorrow!
my gpu temp are around 59-65c while gaming and 27c idle
LuxKadafi I envy you.
***** nice!
***** Mine's max is 55, watercooled.
my max temps are 62c
+LuxKadafi Mine runs at 38c at load and 25c at idle overclocked
Isn't it harmful to spray out that frost from the canned air on your parts?
No? It's compressed air you doofus.
2018 still relevant. Thanks Jay
Just 7 years ago but this video looking so retro. The music helped too LOL
Biggest mistake in buying a 660 with a single fan exhaust heatsink... after a year of use I open it up to find it literally full of dust...
Gotohellcadz you're supposed to clean it more than once a year...
lol, my R7 250 runs at 95+ degrees.
Thats perfectly normal. You should keep playing games.
Benny Kolesnikov Are you sure? It even reaches above 100 sometimes...
Kris Kieronski Youre actally fine, it thermal thottles itself to increase prefromance!
Benny Kolesnikov No, to stop any damage.
no makr it fsr
Love your guides. No nonsense, well explained.
Oh yeah!!! Ahhh, Good ol' times in Jay's streams :)
well, you might not have saved time, but you did save money.
In the long run, you can keep your gpu for longer and not have to try different methods to revive it, or searching to buy a new one for an extended period, so it kind of saves time
My EVGA GTX 660TI got to 96c...
I took the cooler of and what was under there was horror, a part of the gpu wasn't covered with termal paste, only like a part of the gpu.. Now it runs at 77c after doing this =p
Thats still pretty hot for a 660ti my 660ti was a ref cooler and overvolted and OCed it ran at 75C
Velocity I know that it was still pretty hot.. this was with fresh thermal paste though. Now it runs at around ~73 (But not right now, because it is dusty inside my pc.. xD )
it is mormal.My asus nvidia 750 ti goes to 71-74.And my old Nvidia 9500gt would to whopping 117 degrees and around.
Salman Shaikh 117c.... that doesn't sound right though.. xD
yep it was that only xD
Jay, this is a great video on, know how. Thank you. Now I shall give this a go. Awesome video. We need more like these.
Awesome video man. Thought my gpu running at 50 C on ultra Battlefield 3 was bad, but I am at ease now. Keep up the good work man!
hey Jayz, what program do you use to check temp and fan speed
Thanks moosey
hey sir.... can i ask something? everytime i play game on my desktop my monitor suddenly turn black...but i can hear my game still running even if i switch it to the builtin video card still the same... all i can do is to force restart and its ok again... thanks in advance sir moosey
Hi moosey, changed termal paste and pads. However prettymuch the same temp. As my card is factory overclocked, do you think underclocking the card may prevent overheat?
moosey moosingtonthethird Temps go up to 90 celsius while 75%fan speed in some game modes. Video card is zotac geforce gtx560 ti.
i Have the same problem like Chirs (NVIDIA Geforce GT 640) And my temps are going Extremly high while im in game it goes around 90-100 C ive added a bigger fan ,it was fine for a month then the prob appeared again. what should i do .
Btw my pc is 2 years old i dont think that the card is burned yet.
who's here in 2020😅😅
Me need to repair overheating GPU
@@powerfulshammy Me. I've my rx580 at 90 degrees on 100% in warzone.
Awesome video. I remember having to do this a few years ago with my old 9800GTX. After I opened it up the thermal compound was pretty much a little bit of powder, there was hardly anything there which makes me wonder how much thermal compound XFX applied in the first place!
This video was a life saver, by far the best - thank you so much!
this video should be censored so much blowing...
No likes or comments lame ass lol
i did laugh xD
81 Degrees Celsius at 75% Fan Speed before fixing, and 74 Degrees Celsius at 50% Fan Speed after fixing isn't exactly a huge difference. Hardly seems worth the effort.
Extremely quieter fans and 7°C cooler? That is impressive for just changing that... you could also undervolt your gpu and underclock it to reduce it more
سمط جارتي خير من هذا
Depends on the card, i have had cards that sounded like a jet engine after 60% or so fan speed.
Jay i just did this 2 days ago & replaced my thermal paste with the Gelid GC Extreme & im already down 6 degrees, thanks & i have the same replica card & also cleaned the heatsink from the side next to the fan
Great video Jay, very helpful, cuz this is been on my to-do list.
Lol my gpu is hitting 97C in far cry 3
what my pc hits 70 and shutsdown
4 years later.... have you tried overclocking its rgb?
A Friend has a Passive cooled GPU and i told him to put a fan there ... He now has 3x the Performance lol
+SIME_LP Bullshit.
+shadow336k Complete Bullshit. Fans don't add performance. But what do you expect of someone who's called "SIME_LP" and has a minceraft profile picture, lol.
Actually some video cards have a temp limit, where it will throttle, if it hits that temperature, so its not bullshit to cool your cards, but that means his card must have ran over 84c or something equivalent to that number.
Hey Jay, as always a very clear video
Wow. alright. Glad I stumbled upon this. Wonder if Jay could make an updated guide
You do realize that 81 degrees is fine for a GPU, right? It's well within the boundaries of which it can operate. If it was a CPU on the other hand...
***** Im sure he just wanted to make a tutorial on how you might be able to fix a overheating graphics card and that was the oldest hottest running card he had. Even though 81c is within acceptable limits i wouldn't call it ideal.
Vox Nihili Well, I've never seen a graphics card throttle or crash when it was around 80 degrees Celsius. Where I work, we had a card today, that hit 84 degrees celcius. Can't remember which one it was. A couple of weeks ago we have a GTX 780 SLI setup where the cards would max out at a 100 degrees Celsius. When it hits 90+, I get worried, but below that I'd not be worried at all. I don't even know what my own GTX 690 runs at. Hmmm, I should check.
***** Neither have I but thats not the point. If you worry about longevity a card that never gets above 70c is generally going to last quite a bit longer than a card that runs at above 80c every time you put it under load. Not to mention artifacting which is much more likely to occur at those higher temps.
+ϟ STORM ϟ All the new graphics cards, does run cooler. We've entered into a new age of electronics with extremely small manufacturing processes. This means that components will require less power and thus produce less heat. Furthermore, manufacturers are getting better at optimizing their electronics - giving you more "bang for the buck".
what? my pc turns off at 70C
Great tutorial, keep up the good work bro. Keep it up
your newer vids are so much better js. much love jz2cents
this video saved my gtx 770 I was seeing 96°c before at 100% fan speed no overclock. after cleaning and new thermal paste 70° at 65% fan speed and overclocked. thanks jay
great video Jay!
Good video, man. It's scary as shit to do this the first time. Before I did this on my both my 290x cards, I took apart all the damn cards I had laying around, and replaced all the pads/ paste. I took my sweet time on a 280x, since it was the closest thing to a 290x I had on hand. After doing it a couple times, I felt confident enough to risk destroying two $500+ cards.
THANK YOU! Helped a lot! :)
No mention of the retaining CLIP found on most motherboards?Love some of these videos. Especially liked the GPU excess paste video, as I had expected that much paste to have an insulating effect and increase temperature relative to a more typical, thin spread.
This does work. My old r9 290x lightning edition started to act weird. It was getting up in the 80c to 90 c range in a few seconds after opening heaven , and crashing right away,thought it was dying, since its past warranty I decided to try re paste . Now I'm in the low 70c to 60c range in heaven and passing. Guess thermal paste isnt godlike. Old paste was super hard . Anyway thx once again. Let's go division 2 time.
Thank you! this video was handy.
Thank you. My GPU is running at a stable 60C now. : )
thx mate this video really helped my problem i will fix my gpu now
had no idea what was going wrong
Did it fix the problem?
Great tips dude
Thanks I have Rx 480 And this solution Worked
Another great video. Keep it up man
thank dude it was nice to see someone do a video on this . can you use the copper thermal pads on hot running video cards like HD 4870x 2
Nice music reminds me of Samura Jack with the children in that disco.
I would love to,if u do a video about lowering the temperature of the video card. Fan curve undervolting etc. I've seen a lot of ur video and they are pretty nice,but i havent seen a video in big details about fan curve and undervolting. Keep the good job!
awesome tutorial !
wow so old but so good. thank you mrjayz two cents :D
Hello again. Wasn't expecting to see you here.
Following the steps in the video got my EVGA GTX 660 SC load temps from 90c@70% fan speed to 75c@45% fan speed. In this video though he doesn't take all the necessary precautions, make sure to hold the GPU fan when using compressing air to remove the dust cause it can fuck up your bearings.
Thanx - this helped a lot :)
Thanks this video helped
7 years later.... STILL RELEVENT
That's really helpful info thanks j
I don't remember any time when my gpu was above 50C at full load.... It's sapphire amd r9 280x vaporx trix edition.. I think it's because of the vaporx cooling and 3 fans
Thank you so much!!My graphics card temperature is now 65 because i put thermal paste on GPU..Without thermal paste my graphics card temperature is 101..then gpu fan was off...
dude thanks,, u sir,, surely full of awesomeness,, gosh i love u
thanks for the help
cool vaterra twin hammers.... it was a losi, but vaterra bought the design. I have the prototype brushless version Losi presented
My GTX 770 FTW is a heat monster. I can't install anything above or below without it heating up more. I only see two options, either I install a fan on the case lid next to the GPU, or I get water blocks and do liquid cooling all around, which is not in my budget...
When I apply thermal paste I do the original method "the blob," basically place a blob in the middle and press gpu back down. It will create a smooth surface and spread out evenly.
Thank you
You are awesome, my cards run super cool again!!!!
Going to have to try this. Can't afford a new card at the moment.
great vid ,
Jayz you really made me realize that i need to stop worrying about building pc's
0:49 you actually hold the spray upside down and spray fluid on the graphics card and you see a little drop going down on the right.
ok have updated amd drivers and seems its 34c so hopefully all good. fan is on 35.
2021. 8 years later. Still relevant.
another tip is to check the wattage recommendation on your psu based on the gpu's power requirement. I was running under and upreaded my psu and dropped 10 degrees!
J,you mentioned that you knew your graphics card temp it was running before n after repair.Do you use a certain ap to show the temperature on your system
Hey I remember you from the bioshock livestream! My name was JakeRobbinsMC lol
Subscribed, you know I did.
Happy new year y'all !
Great guide. I still have a gtx 980 wich suddenly runs at 94 degree (YES!)after 4 months usage. Will send it to manufacturer still have warranty. But i have tried literally everything. It is weird tho why the cards start act like that.
I dont know if you'll remember @jayztwocents but were your gpu fans topping out? My rx580 (msi armor oc 8gb) can no longer handle too many particles on screen at once, smoke, fire etc, fans top out, gpu usage hit 102% at one point temps dont actually go over 70odds either, driving me nuts. System has crashed a couple of times, as soon as i rotate 180degrees away from effect/s fans slow down again but theyre definitely alot more sensitive! Bought the card used a couple of years ago and it worked fine intil a few weeks ago. Do you think this is a hardware issue more than a servicing issue? Thanks.
I want this little monster car in the beginning :D
fantastic
Jay I see you are using an x58 mobo coz I can see the 6 dim slots what cpu are you using ?
Thanks
Which software did you use to measure the temperature of the GPU in game? Futhermore, I love your videos! Very educational and fun to watch.
elmardv CPUID HWMonitor is excellent for all temps.
I have that same exact NZXT Black Phantom case!!!
I got one of those DataVacs and that thing is amazing. I clean my computer weekly or bi-weekly and it still blows chunks of dust out the the graphics card. They are a bit pricey but will eventually pay for themselves with the savings you get from not buying canned air.
Jay, was that intro you trying to drive a vaterra twin hammers up a wall?
