Aurora R10, overheating?

I have an Aurora R10 with a gtx 2080 super. It’s running at 84 degrees under load, and around 35-45 while idle. 850watt liquid cooling option installed. Are these temps within normal range? I should also mention that it is running the Ryzen 7. I’d like the opinions of other owners before contacting tech support.

    Probably refers to average range. Also, don’t forget Boost 3.0 causing a drop in boost clock frequency every 5C or so.

    Thank you. I am having issues responding to personal messages. For some reason it wont let me send a reply. Here are my base specs.

    AMD Ryzen 7 3700X 8-Core Processor

    NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER

    16GB Memory

    1GB SSD

    850watt liquid cooling and the warranty are the only customization options I chose.

    84C for CPU or GPU? What type of load is it? CPU or GPU intensive? What's the fan speeds for top fan, front fan, and GPU fan? What's the power drawn (W) when the temps are that high?

    I ended up calling into tech support. The wonderful young woman I spoke to installed a few drivers, and helped me with my settings. Under stress testing it never went above 74. She assured me everything is working properly. 

    EDIT: Yes, the 84c was the graphics card.

    What were the settings that you adjusted and what settings did you use to bring your temps down?

    Primarily adjusting the thermal control to performance. I’m researching on custom fan settings to maybe balance it out a bit better, but for now I’ll stick to the presets.

    84C you means sure.

    CPU or GPU,. ?

    at near 80c the intel inside shows its self down (smart) and near 90C or per your intel data sheet it shuts down.

    newer GPU chips do the same thing (smarter now they are)

    if the CPU runs that hot your cooling system is failing,  for  sure.

    ok now down to 74C and good..  solved.

    nice posts above showing case open tests, very very good.

    Thank you for your reply. It was the graphics card that was running at 84C, while the CPU was much lower. I’m going to look more into custom fan settings, but for now all seems to be good. I’ve never been a PC gamer before, so I think I’ve been a bit paranoid about everything lol. I was concerned about my computer overheating, but I think nothing of my PS4 sounding like a damn jet engine .

    NVIDIA says that GPU temperatures typically average between 40 and 90 degrees Celsius, with a maximum permissible temperature of up to 105.

    Typically the GPU will throttle to prevent damage.

    So its normal.  Its never going to be SILENT however.

    There are less capable GPUs that are silent such as

    Palit's GeForce GTX 1050 Ti KalmX

    Palit's GeForce GTX 1650 KalmX

    A GTX 1050 isn't a waste of money because it can always be carried forward.
    AGP and Conventional PCI from 2005 and earlier machines are a waste.

    There are even cases of someone putting a 1080TI into an XPS 400 from 2006.
