Rtx 3080 undervolting Orion 5000 I'm asking because during warm days it reaches 83 degrees

Hello. Someone in our Orions 5000 with rtx3080 cards undervolted to lower a few temperatures. If so, I will ask for safe and verified values. I'm asking because during warm days it reaches 83 degrees and I don't know if it's safe

do you have all the case fans and the GPU fans at 100%? this will help but not solve the problem, ambient room temperatures are most likely the problem, and you can under volt it using MSI Afterburner and there are videos on YouTube telling you how, but I'm not sure what it will do to the card long term, something to think about for sure. i have a 5000 and installed a new CPU cooler and 2 fans on the top rack for exhaust, something you can do also, it will help cool the case better and remove more hot air to help cool the GPU.

Is it the GPU that's at 83C or the CPU? There is a big difference between the two… 83C as either a peak or steady state CPU temperature in a warm ambient environment is likely nothing to worry about, that's typically the target temperature for heavy gaming. That's a bit high for the GPU, they typically try to run about 10C cooler than that under max load. There are things you can do to drop the temperatures, but running as you are isn't going to hurt things.
