Hey guys, in this video I talk about how I went about decreasing, my MSI Radeon R9 390’s GPU core temperature. These past few weeks I had been noticing that my GPU would start to reach some pretty high temps sometimes even hitting 94C and that was something I just wasn’t comfortable with. So I decided to solve this issue by doing a thermal repaste on the GPU die using some arctic silver 5 and try some undervolting settings using MSI afterburner.
