Please take a look at this iCUE graphs

I am playing Day's Gone on full graphics, and I just want reassurance that these numbers are OK when gaming?
Celsius wise, and fan rpms wise etc
See attached
Is this normal for gaming on high graphics.

Assuming you're asking about the H150i stats, I'd say the fans are running near max speed if they're >2000 RPM. Coolant temp seems a tad high, but yet the CPU temp is very low, but if the screenshots were taken right in the middle of gaming, it would seem that there is no load on the CPU at all.

Which makes me think that the GPU is the source of all the heat in the case, causing the coolant to rise and therefore cause the H150i fans to ramp up.

Apart from the fans on the H150 radiator, what other case fans are installed?

Hi, I removed the picture of your specs as it contained your windows key, could you just copy and paste the full specs, and obviously delete the windows key?

I have 2 fans on the front, and the iCUE H150i which I believe is the 3 fans on the top, so 5 altogether, not counting the one at the back, that takes the heat away. This was in the middle of gaming.

Obviously new computer, top spec, but not an expert, so seeing these numbers I have no clue if everything is OK, or if it is too hot?
Specs attached.

CPU temp = Fine, it's basically at idle in those screen shots, so the temps ~35c are normal
GPU temp = High, but probably not reaching the point where the card with throttle due to temp. Can you share the exact make and model of card so we can confirm it's throttling point? High temp is expected because it's under full load while gaming.

What profile are you running the H150i in? Can you grab a screenshot the same as this:

Another thought, if the back fan has been configured to adjust its RPM based on CPU temp, then if the CPU is not under load, the CPU temp never rises, so back fan just runs along at a nice low RPM. And in doing so doesn't exhaust the hot air from the GPU operating at full pelt. This causes the coolant in the H150 pump to rise due to the ambient temp in the case. Which in turn causes the radiator fans at top to kick into overdrive and your PC sounds like a hairdryer....

Nvidia 3080 ti
I think I set all settings to sync and align with what ever parameters.
It's just set to default profile....

Thanks for yout time and help.

This is while I have game running.

I get it's a 3080 TI, but is it an Asus card? Zotac? Gigabyte?

In that screenshot, click on the H150I, then on "Cooling" and take a screenshot of the fan settings

That model is the graphics card is what I'm asking. We know it's a 3080to card, but by which manufacturer?

As an example, I have a 3070 TI, but it's made by Zotac and it's their Trinity OC version.
see attached thank you

Looks fine, using one of the standard fan curves. You could potentially change the pump from "Quiet" to "Balanced" for better cooling performance.

But I'm still leaning towards the fact that this particular game is entirely GPU intensive (based on your screenshots) and the exhaust fan is not increasing its RPMs to exhaust the gas as it's linked to CPU temp. But temps of GPU and CPU are within allowed operating limits.
