MSI Radeon HD7970OC TwinFrozr Overheating Issue at 80 Degrees: Core Clock & Memory Clock Settings

Hello. I have this graphic card: http://www.morele.net/karta-graficzna-msi-rad...-pci-e-384bit-dvi-hdmi-2mdp-box-r7970-tf-3gd5 -oc-be-573495 / and I have a problem. The graphics card overheats quickly around 80 degrees. (during e.g. bf4 after 20 minutes of playing) I have an additional housing fan for extracting warm air. But it overheats anyway. I think it's the fault of the wrong configuration. In MSI, afterburner writes that I have a core clock at 1050 MHZ and in the description of my graph cards I write that I have 1000 Mhz, and in the program I also write a memorial clock that I have a mouth at 1375 Mhz and in the description I have 5500. And it could be this fault? the card is just full but it is limited and cannot use its full power and is overheating? How so how to set these 5500 MHz? in Msi I can only go to 2000 but I'm afraid ... I'm green in these matters.

80 ° C is the normal temperature for graphics chips.
These 5500mhz is the effective clock, 1375mhz is the reference clock.
1375x4 = 5500
There's nothing to worry about.
If you want to have a bit cooler, increase the fan speed of the graphics card.

That's good: / But the computer is going terribly loud as the fan turns up: / then it stays so 70 degrees ... And what are the maximum temperatures for given components?

Graphics cards are ~ 90 ° C (although it is better to keep them lower), processors, depending on the architecture, can be very different, but universally accepted as 65-70 ° C (excluding old procks (e.g. ATHLON XP) and mobile processors. temperature varies because some OC processors need lower temperatures (e.g. Phenom II requires temperatures below 60 ° C for OC)).
The bridges on the board are ~ 75 ° C and the power section depends on how heavily it is loaded.

80 degrees is not normal temperature and it's no wonder, even for 7970. My 7850, underlined, never comes close to 70 degrees. "the card is just full but it is limited and cannot use full power and is overheating?" not sure if troll ... In MSI afterburner, set the power target to the maximum, manually turn up the fan to a minimum of 45% and the rest of the settings to default, i.e. timing, etc., and see if it will heat up

80 ° C is the normal temperature for graphics chips.
The fact that your card does not reach these temperatures is only because it generates less heat and has a different cooling system.
For almost 2 years I used hd6990 with air cooling where temperatures of 85-90 ° C were the norm and nothing happened. Now the card is water-based so the maximum temperature is usually 50-60 ° C (in summer at 35 ° C air temperature and fans at low speed, it will be exceptionally high under 70 ° C).
A colleague deigns to read the tests of many reference card models and observe that such temperatures are not surprising.
Graphics chips usually only slow down after reaching 95 ° C, so don't worry about the author.

Another example: the new R7 250X from Sapphire Flex (HD7770), tiny cooling, only two heatpipes and 73 ° C and the fan at 20%. When I tire a little more with, for example, a benchmark, the temperature increases even more and only the fan accelerates.

Except that two slots lower, another card is inserted, which increases the temperature on the first one by a few ° C. So, the fan on the side of the casing blowing on the graphics is important.

Replace her thermo paste with a new one, turn up the fans by 10-15% and she has to run. What is your casing and how many fans are there?
80 degrees for this class of cards is nothing extraordinary.

This type is like that, I wouldn't care.

Nothing happened so far. The temperature stayed around 70-80 during intense gaming. But recently something has flickered again and the upper casing heats up (the most where the power supply is), I suspect that the heating of the computer is the fault of the power supply. Is it possible? The power supply is not some noname, but CrossAir 650V so I am surprised; (but it's already a year old so it could .. How do you think? Because it becomes unbearable, the computer heats up quickly! It works loud. And I also had problems with the front USB input when I tried to connect something it pops up with too high voltage Maybe it's this fault?

Added after 2 [minutes]:

also when I disconnected the computer, a spark popped out and the TV turned off in the room xD Myszka and the key still shines after turning off the computer. Maybe it's the fault of the bios setting?

I'll start at the back. The fact that the mouse and the choke are glowing is an option in the bios. Therefore, it is possible that the mobo is crazy, maybe some capacitor has swollen, I shoot.
Check the power supply with a voltage test, you will see if there is any stability or a monte carlo.
Too high voltage is a curiosity, usually it is too low for the front of the panel.
I cannot give you clear advice. Do these tests, show what happened, maybe we can eliminate something.
