Anyone else running the GTX 1080 ti in VR? I'm noticing some really high temps. Currently I'm idling at 50c. That's pretty warm, isn't it?
Hardware & Technical GTX 1080 ti temps

Bought Today Asus Strix 1080 Ti , I will let you know latter how is going with temps. What exacly g.card do you have?
That's warm. Which brand? Is that a Founders Edition or third party?
Are you using preset fan speeds, or a custom curve? Are you OC'ing? If so, set it to stock and see what your idle norm is.
As stated, check the airflow through your case. One obvious thing is to make sure air vents are not plugged with dust, cat hair etc. and that you have as many fans pushing air out of your case as you do pushing air in. Photos of the case exterior and interior would help.

Idle at 50c is not a problem.
And neither is a load temp at 85c.

In a nutshell for a founders card, these temps are just fine.
You will need a different cooler to really expect going lower, or greatly ramp up fan speed.
They are built to handle much higher temps even though this is nvidia designated throttle point.
One reason I'm done with blower style coolers, I hope myself to hold out for the release of Volta, but if am going for this as well, I'm waiting for the Asus strix or equivalent styled coolers.
That are tested to have load temps at around 70c, same as my Windsor centre 980ti, but I had to mount a fan in the side slot feeding it air to get down below 80c load.
Not really because of temps but noise levels.

My TitanX idles at 27C and under ~80% load with Vive VR on High settings runs at 65c. If you are running 85c, on a monitor, you have issues you need to look at.
"Really high" being......?
80-90c is within norms under heavy load with stock stuff last I checked

50 is nothing for a graphics card. My 1080ti runs at that temp. It only actually begins the throttling process above 85%. You can get lower temperatures by increasing your fans speed but the downside is that it sounds like a vacuum cleaner sitting next to your head. Waterblocks will get you cooler and allow you to OC past 1.9. got mine sitting at around 1.8 now and its a beast. About 55 under game load and the fan noise is tolerable/barely noticeable.
Right. Having read my post again, it looks like I missed the point: these temps are completely normal [yesnod] Neverteless, I'm getting an AIO for it, gotta get that 2x HMD quality
fwiw, my dual titans were idling in the high 40s on the stock cooler (basically a founders edition), and ran into the low-to-mid 80s when benchmarked.
The EVGA hybrid was a godsend -- it dropped idle temps to the low 30s, and the things barely hit the 50s in 3dmark. And they're supremely quiet under load. Go with the AIO, you won't regret it. I will say that the pump on the EVGA is audible at idle-- not annoying, but if it's quiet in my office, I can definitely hear a low-pitched whirring. But something to look into when choosing a GPU aio.
Heh, jacked the prices back up again. The same item I ordered yesterday at MSRP is now set at over $100 above MSRP! bloodsuckers.... good think I jumped fast when I saw that MSRP price.
Damn, wish I would have brought stock in Nvidia a few years ago prior to release of the 10 series cards!

If you even have the slightest interest in low temperatures, silence or overclocking: https://www.arctic.ac/ch_en/accelero-hybrid-iii-140.html
You guys think this would perform well? https://www.arctic.ac/eu_en/accelero-xtreme-iv.html
The reviews are pretty good on Titan X and 1080.

1080Ti reference card max temp is 91. 85 is fine and typically standard of more recent cards on a max load with reference coolers or no custom fan curves with only ambient air cooling.
@OP If you are really worried about it and think you have the capability, find an aftermarket cooler. Just know that it will void your warranty if you decide to replace the stock cooling. Other alternatives are to download a program to control the fan curves and make it more aggressive and if you have a slot for a fan on the side of your case, add a fan there.
It's not that those temps are the max before a cards takes damage.
They are the temps where the cards firmware will start to throttle it's clock cycle to reduce temperature and power consumption.
And tests shows that FE cards will run that hot when pushed.
Bottom line, you would want to keep the temps lower than the thermal limit of the card.
As @Dbrn47 mentioned, definetely make sure you have enough airflow, these big cards needs lot's of airflow, I personally popped a spare fan into my case when I got the 980ti, didn't need while a 960 was ok, and temp's dropped from 80c to 72c max, I hardly ever see those temps, it's mostly around 65c.
Just from adding one fan to blow more air in on the card.
In fact a case with decent airflow is often quite a lot better than most bench setups , Like most testers use, with no enclosure.
