That screenshot of GPUZ tells me he's mining. 106C with the core running at 1260mhz full load. Same as mine is running at right now except my ram temp is 80C.
Nope not mining. This was in shadow of the tomb raider. I used voltage curves to see if brining the power down can help memory.... Please do not assume and maybe ask?
Wow, sorry, only assuming because that's crazy low for GPU core power and temp to have the mem temp so high. There's something wrong with your card then. Is that the memory junction temp in your screenshot? I only ask because I know some EVGA cards have other mem sensors. Either the readings are wrong as HeinzNeu is suggesting, or a thermal pad is out of place (unless you already took it apart to check for that of course, haven't read the whole thread).

Even when I had the air cooler on my card it never reached anywhere near that temp....sounds like a reporting issue to me.

I have a massive aluminum heatsink on the back of mine with some 80mm fans moving air over it and that keeps the temp at 92 degrees under heavy stress test benchmarking. Without the heatsink I've easily seen memory junction hit 108 - 110 degrees. That being said, regular gaming without the heatsink I might hit the mid-80s, with the heatsink, it stays around 68 - 70 degrees. If you have a spare wraith stealth cooler and some thermal pads, you can slap it on the back and it works just as well.
...happen to have a spare Wraith cooler... I don't mind trying. Where on the backside should it go? On the GPU chip behind, where the exposed parts are or on the backplate itself?

vertical mount it so airflow can touch the backplate

I have XC3 3090 as well before a that 1080ti from launch day
I've only seen that clock and temp behaviour while mining when I had a Air cooler on it (I have a waterblock on it now)
Gaming clocks even with an adjusted curve was higher and ram temps lower.
I'll give you the benefit of the doubt, the fact you had 4!!! faulty 1080ti's I would think you are doing "something" to them and your 3090 to lead to such high gaming temps

Like I said disaster launch
Maybe start with not having a +500 ram clock

the fact that the OP claims he's not mining when he very obviously is mining is the most hilarious part of this whole thread. -500 core clock, +500 memory clock, fans at 100% constant GPU/mem load (not fluctuating like a game does).  "not mining, I'm gaming I swear!" just admit it bro, no one cares. but EVGA won't give you a "free" extended warranty no matter how much you cry on the forums. don't be hyperbolic.

Thanks for being insulting, I don't spend all my time on this forum I spend most of it on the OCUK forum. Yep I'm a level one tech, only been building PC's for 30 years, watercooling for 20, been around since the 286sx days, program for a living, used to work games animation tech yep I know nothing about any of this "Your" 6900xt has less ram , less ram chips which are not as close together and uses different ram (GDDR6 and not GDDR6X) so you are comparing chalk and cheese. Since you like your annotated screenshots about about one showing GPU Z your game running and or task manager so we can see what you are running to get these temps. *unecessary post removed, so subsequent quote was removed as well.

Either mining or the card is defective. Even my crappy Zotac was better than that bone stock. Lol. Although my Zotac has gone from zero to hero in part thanks to EVGA . ;-)

People are having the same issue when mining. If you know what you are doing you won't mind showing us wrong by showing your gpu z and task manager at the same time. Its not that hard is it? I'll be the first to try and help. Also knowing and seeing the rest of your system and cooling setup might help to better optimise your cooling etc

Also the ram on the back side alone is dumping put 25-30w of heat into that back plate so better thermal pads won't help as the back plate dosnt have the surface area

better invest in that EK waterblock and backplate if you want MINING to last

This doesn’t quite have to with the other forum post. The op is taking about the memory junction temp in hwinfo. Which may not be accurate, or it might. I see similar temperatures while mining.

Running 110C and peaked 112C.
This launch is a disaster....
Need to RMA your card. My 3090 FTW3 Ultra has never gone above 90c for memory temps. I'm currently mining with it and my memory temps are in the high 60s.

Rear ram pads and contact is terriable. This has already been known with EVGA 3090s since the first reviews and teardowns came out and the pads were found to but miss placed.  Heres mine, Was 101C with EVGAs placement job. Replacing pads drop it to 90C. Then replacing backplate with active cooling droped it to 70C.

What Thermalpad size and W/mK did you use?

Brain dead people assume I am mining... Smh This IS PURE EXAMPLE. I ran Shadow of the tomb raider max settings and letting the fans set to auto it still gets hot.... 4k 120 hz is not easy to run..... There is a flaw in these designs
Well, it seems its better for your health to rma or sell the card. I have a RTX 3090 and back in October I knew this card will be very hot. And before buying, there were already some threads with temperature issues. So everybody knows it. I also game on 4k 120hz and I simply don't care about temperatures anymore. I got my memory temperature form 98°C to 88°C by changing the airflow in the Ncase M1. (With a 5950x in there) I got the 50$ 10-Year waranty (3 +7 years) and so what? If it dies I will get exchange in the next ten years.

Hi bmgjet, Nice work on the thermal pad replacement. Do you mind sharing the thickness of the pads you used? Seems most people online have the 3090 FTW versions while I have the XC3 version and I'm not sure the pad thickness is the same between those two models. Thanks EDIT: Backplate thermal pads to be specific

Can you show me how you got 70c while mining?

Pretty impressed with the 3090 FTW3 vram temps on mine so far. Better than a 3080 Hybrid.
