    I purchased an EK water cooler kit for CPU/GPU, but my 6800XT is running so hot. always upper 90s to lower 100s.

    It also shows, in after burner, that my card seems to have two GPUs installed? One shows mid 60s while the second upper 90s/low 100s.

    There is a lot of heat coming out of that radiator.

    I repasted the GPU and I still get the same results.

    Any clues for this clueless bastard?

    The 6800XT Is a single Die GPU, it does not in any way have two GPUs. You should probably post of a screenshot of what you are seeing.

    From those temperature reading, I'd hazard a guess they're core (mid 60s) and junction temperature (upper 90s). My Nitro+ RX 6900 XT hits mid 60'ish core and junction temp of about 85C under load.

    What are the room ambient temps, that is relevant to water temps which are directly relevant to core temps.
    An example being on a cold Saturday
    Room temp 14C
    Case temp 18C
    Water temp 22C
    GPU temp 26C/30C
    If the voltage and usage remains the same then as room temps rise, so do all the other temps.

    Also look at your loop, is it efficient, do you have good head pressure, cool air directly into the radiator and hot air directly out the radiator (and case).
    GPU voltages, do you have those custom set or is the software doing it.

    Lots and lots of variables.
    As a yardstick, if my water temps are around30C then my 6900xt at 2500mhz and ingame will be running at 60C/65C on a custom loop.
