I noticed that every time I try to train something or run stable diffusion, my 1060 reaches a temperature around 95deg, and everything slows down. If I keep using it, it actually shuts off my laptop immediately.Is this normal? I haven't opened or cleaned that laptop since I bought it in 2016, could doing some maintenance help? Extra info: It takes about one to two minutes to go from 60-70 degrees to 95 degrees, so it heats up rather quickly. But it takes over 10 minutes to fall back under 80 degrees. Maybe I should also set the fan speed manually to max?
>>107550124replace the thermal paste and clean out the dustis this your first day using a computer?
>>107550134Don't talk like that to normies, they require practical solutions, not some tinkertroon bullahit.>>107550124Submerge in mineral oil.
>>107550134No, I am just not a hardware guy ...
>>107550124>Is this normal?It is not desirable but it is "normal" in the sense that:Laptops have horrible coolingLaptops manufacturers use absolute dogshit quality thermal paste that degrades quicklyIn these conditions it is normal that heavy load can cause excessive heat and trigger overheating protection shutdown.>could doing some maintenance help?Yes.Clean the dust inside and repaste GPU with a decent paste like mx-4 or whatever.>>107550308Just pay bucks to your local PC repair shop to do that then.
>>107550308You can't be a good software guy without being a hardware guy. Find a new hobby, computers aren't for you.
>>107550654Why exactly
>my 10 year old budget graphics card is a piece of shit, halp me gee
>>107551973Yes.
>>107550124Use MSI Afterburner to set a custom fan curve, limit power draw and or max temp, or prioritize utilization based on power draw or temperatureGens will be slower but your laptop won't shutdown.
