So my idle temps are about 37C but when I go into warzone it skyrockets up to 84C. Now I noticed in precision I had it set to target 84C for some reason so I set the target temp to 70 with 85% power. When running COD Warzone at 4k borderless window I get temps around 75C. I think these temps are pretty high considering it's water cooled but idk. I recently bought a Noctua NF-F12 fan thinking it would help but it really didnt. Does anyone have any recommendations or has anyone had high temps with this card?

Hi Michaelw99,
 
Welcome to the EVGA forums.  I see here the temperatures of the Hybrid GPU.  Be sure to have the radiator mounted to the top of the case, and try setting a frame rate cap.  Since 4k will be more demanding, it may need to be frame rate limited to the monitors refresh rate.

Ok I'll be sure to try that. I set power to 100% and temp to the lowest which was 65C. It seems to be helping and staying at the set temps for now. I'll also be sure to set a frame limit as that's not a bad idea. Do you see anything wrong with setting the target temp to 65?

Hi Michaelw99,
 
I do not see a problem, however, past 65c, there will be a performance hit, since the GPU will lower clock speed past 65c.  The GPU is rated for the Maximum temperature, and its advised to keep it at 84c.

Wait so you're saying 84C is normal temps?

It is normal temps for aircooled card, but not for hybrid.
Fast temperature rise indicate that there is something wrong - either with water circulation (radiator mounted lower than pump or with tubes upward, so air trapped in pump), radiator airflow (airflow is obstructed so water is not cooling down) or gpu contact (bad TIM application).
 
DeltaT between water and gpu is not so high, so if everything OK with gpu contact and water circulation - when your card reaches 84C, your radiator and tubes should be very hot due to water temperatures around 65C at least. If you feel that water temperature is low while gpu is hot (tubes and radiator is slightly warm or near room temperatures) - then check contact and circulation, otherwise you don't have enough airflow through radiator.

Ok so how can I check for all these things? I currently have the radiator mounted to the back of the case with the fan on the inside pushing air towards the back of the case and upwards.

Check to see if your rad is clogged up with dust behind the fan.

Also should try mounting the rad as intake. Put the fan on the other side and have the air flow blow threw the rad and into the case.

Top fans as exhaust.

At the end of all that tilt the case while gaming so that the water lines on the card are facing up as to push out any trapped air from the card/pump up to the radiator where it should be trapped.

Would it be better if I had the gpu mounted upright in the case because I notice that the tubes from.the gpu are touching the glass on the front of the case and it sketches me out a little haha

Picture of radiator in place could be good.
 
As for checking - simply touch radiator and tubes when gpu is hot. Does it feels hot too or it slightly warm? If it feels hot - your problem is cooling down water, radiator don't have enough air, check with opened case. If it feels cold or just warm - its either air in pump (does it sound weird when running? do you hear pump spinning if get your ear close to pump?) or bad gpu contact (need to disassemble the card and reapply TIM).

Yeah I definitely think there's something wrong with my airflow because now that the case is open I'm getting much better temps under load. I was around 55-58C while playing 4k@60FPS. I have a 360 rad for my CPU mounted in the front pulling in air and 2 exhaust at the top as well as 1 exhaust at the back for the GPU rad. I'm not feeling any airflow coming out the back of my cpu rad. What do you guys recommend I change to make my airflow better?

Well, that mean your cpu rad is obstructing intake. 
You need to get more intake, because it is not affecting only your gpu, but also your motherboard and memory.
 
So ways are:
a) if it possible - mount cpu rad on top as exhaust - in that case you will geat clean intake and both cpu and gpu will get air from it
b) you can try to add more fans to cpu rad and make push-pull configuration if there is enough place for that (rad is about 30mm, fans - 25mm, so you need at least 80mm thicknes clearance)
c) you can use top fans as intake instead of exhaust.

I was thinking about doing option C at first but my room is very dusty and I don't think that would work well in the long run. Option A is a no go as the top of my case only supports 120/140 or 240/280. I have like 4 mediocre fans I can definetly try to install, I just gotta find screws haha.

Well, also try to mount gpu radiator with hoses down to prevent air from top of radiator get into pump.

Ok yeah I can try that too, thank you. I think I need to go buy some screws though for all the fans. What kind of screws should I be looking for? I wouldnt know what size they are or what they're called.

That depend on rad, but mostly it is something like 6-32 30mm lenght.
Plus you can check your aio screws - I think you should have 3x4 long screws to hold fans on radiator and 3x4 short screws to hold radiator on case without fan - maybe it is enough lenght to screw a fan to radiator.

Oh if they're 6-32 screws then I'll just go to home depot and buy some.

I rotated my rad 180 and now the tubes are on the bottom, huge improvement for sure. I'm now running around 65C but I still want to install the push/pull on my other rad so my mobo and everything else stay cool. I still can't believe I never paid attention to any of this when building my Pc xD. Thank you for your help

You may have to cut the screws to the correct length. Done that a bunch of times. You dont want the screws to reach the rad fins as you could puncture the rad and cause it to leak :/

A good pare of wire cutters would have a screw cutter built in to assist in cutting your screws to length like this.

If your gona leave the flow as is.. your going to have to make those CPU rad fans run at 100% to supply enough cooler air for the GPU rad..

But like I said.. make the GPU rad as intake where you have it now.. have all rad fans as intake.. top exhaust.. the rest of the heat will be pushed out any small openings in the case.

Also if you dont have the GPU rad connected to the motherboard you should. As it is you cant control the GPU rad fan speed. If your motherboard allows (which most do) you need to set it at a static speed. I'd say 75%. I'd go 100% all the time but if thats the stock fan it would be loud. Buying a better quieter fan would be ideal or 2 for push pull but not really necessary. Usually only a 1-2c difference with an extra fan.

Also be careful if the case has fan filters.. if too fine of s filter it will block air flow.
