Gpu thermal throttling

[arm4gh4n]

How do I fix my gpu thermal throttling at 65 degrees which is low or can I increase the temperature that  it starts to thermal throttle at?(rx5500 4gb)

@arm4gh4n,

Your HP AMD RX 5500 4GB is capable to use up to 206 watt when stressed. I am just thinking out loud here, but given your anemic 400 watt stock power supply, that could be the cause of your GPU throttling down.  In other words, it may have little to do with 65 degrees -which isn't particularly high, but more with power consumption. Another cause may be that your GPU is defective, unfortunately.

The reason why I am speculating this is because the Maximum Operating Temperature for your GPU's Hot Spot is listed at about 105~110 degrees, and only then should you see your GPU card starting to throttle down in order to keep the so-called Hot spot temperature below said degrees.  I happen to use an HP AMD RX5500 4GB on one of my kid's gaming desktops, and it zips happily along at mid-eighties during demanding games.

Kind Regards,
