TechPowerUp GPU-Z v2.36.0 Released
TechPowerUp today released the latest version of TechPowerUp GPU-Z, the definitive graphics sub-system information, monitoring, and diagnostic utility for PC gamers, enthusiasts, and overclockers. The new version 2.36.0 adds support for new GPUs, and introduces many new fixes. For starters, it improves support for AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT and RX 6800, and adds support for BIOS extraction from RDNA2-based graphics cards. Support is added for the new NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti, GeForce MX 450, Quadro RTX 6000 Mobile; Intel Xe MAX, Xe Pod, Xe SG-18M, and several other new Intel GPUs; and AMD Radeon Pro VII, HD 8550D, and Barco MXRT 5600. Support is also added for the EVGA iCX sensor suite on the company's latest RTX 30-series graphics cards.
Among the other things we improved are temperature reading support for AMD "Zen 3" processors, fixed ROP counts on Radeon RX 6800 series graphics cards, support for the new XFX sub-vendor ID, fixes to reported memory size on certain NVIDIA cards, clock-speed reading on NVIDIA "Ampere" cards with no drivers installed; and a BSOD error with Windows Code Integrity enabled.

also what is your hotspot temp? mine hits 85 celsius sometimes, kind of worries me. but gpu temp itself doesn't break 65. i really wish they never showed us hotspot temps, now I am going to constantly trying to be figuring out ways to bring that down.
i will just leave it at 165hz and ignore it for now
Thanks a lot for the updated version that supports RX6800XT. :cool:On my 6800XT, the junction temperature was hitting 95°C in Firestrike Extreme Stress test.
By default the fan is configured to run max 50% when junction temperature hits 95°C.
I changed the profile to go step by step towards 100% with max temp allowed 95°C.
After that the fan was going towards 80% and max junction temperature remained below 88°C.
The noise of the fan was not annoying to me.
It is hidden behind noise of 6 EK fans on my watercooling loop. :laugh:
At the moment that loop is overkill for just 5800X until I get EK waterblock for 6800XT. :p
If I get my waterblock next week, I will be able to significantly reduce the temps on junction.
On my Radeon VII, I had max GPU temp of 42°C and junction lower than 80°C with waterblock. :D
With reference cooler there the junction temperature was hitting 110°C all time and GPU was throttling. :mad:
Thank you W1zzard!!
@turbogear yeah I increased fans as well, and now my junction doesn't go above 73 celsius or so. and card doesn't go above 60 celsius... this was in 3 hrs of Jedi Fallen gameplay last night... so yeah I am quite happy. and I agree the reference model fans are not very loud at all. lovely card. truly well designed.
Can confirm the same with my RTX 3080. Thanks @W1zzard
Just keep dust away from it and you will be all good.
