High Temp of GPU?

[killmasta93]

Hi
I was wondering if someone could shed some light, Currently i have zabbix monitoring the GPU temp which goes to 100C but dont understand why if the VMs dont use GPU as i dont have any passthough, Not sure how to trobleshoot the issue?
I already cleaned the Server and still shows high GPU

Have you ever touched the graphics card? Do you have sufficient cooling? Are all fans working?

 

[killmasta93]

nope fans working fine, we have ac 24/7, im going to see if i install the drivers of nvidia to see nvtop to see whats going on

Hi,

maybe the GPU is faulty? We once had also a GPU for testing purpose and not in use by VM's but the server fans were all on 100% because of the GPU. After removing, everything was back to normal and in the end it turned out the GPU was damaged.

wow good to know i think the issue is that the GPU is integrated in the mother board

Is there a driver loaded for the GPU? GPUs without drivers won't always go into power saving mode. What does lspci -nnk show for the GPU device?

thanks for the reply currently i get this

03:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: NVIDIA Corporation G98 [GeForce 9300 GS] [10de:06e1] (rev a1) Kernel driver in use: nouveau Kernel modules: nvidiafb, nouveau

The open-source driver nouveau is loaded for this GPU. That driver is known to have no access to NVidia's documentation for re-clocking (which prevents any decent performance) but I don't know if that applies to the 9300. Maybe investigate if that's the case? Maybe pass it through to a minimal VM with the NVidia driver to put it in power save mode? Or install the proprietary NVidia driver on Proxmox (which might break when Proxmox updates the kernel)?
