GPU issue in Fallout 4

Not only is that not Radeon Settings, as @beers so eloquently put, but there is no driver version listed there.

Read this. Educate yourself. And come back and do as I said, reset your Overdrive settings, and tell me your driver version. Your previous post did neither.

I don't have Overdrive and I don't know what that is, so I don't know what the settings would be.

Believe me, we're not. His posts are far stupider than I can think of to post myself.

I don't have Overdrive and I don't know what that is, so I don't know what the settings would be. I also can't find Radeon settings I don't think I have it.

It happened again and this time I was logging my temps to a text document, which is uploaded as an attachment to this message. Before I began playing my GPU was at 52C and it rose up to 70C in just five minutes of gaming and the fan went to 100% and it got as high as 74C before I closed the game and the temp immediately dropped down to the 60s.

I'm not sure why you're surprised when nothing has changed.

The reference cooler for those wasn't very good, 74C isn't too alarming but it's going to be pegged on the fan since you're slamming it with 100% utilization the whole time.

If you want something quieter either get an aftermarket cooler or a card upgrade that has a better cooling system. I wouldn't worry until it started creeping into the high 80s

For the 6950 you can go up to about 90c.

Okay. I don't know if I'd want to go that high but thanks for helping me. I won't be as concerned anymore.

However I am still confused. I never had this issue in the first 40 hours I played the game, but now my GPU temp instantly rises and my fan becomes a jet turbine.

Have you blown the fan out recently? What is ambient temp in the room?

I blow out the dang fan at least once a week because between the house itself, my multiple longhaired pets, my PC is essentially a $2000 dust sucker even when it's sitting on a desk ~3 feet off the floor!
Also, the ambient temperature of the room is anywhere from 70F to 90F, it depends on the weather. During the summertime (basically starting now) the room is around 80 degrees.

Is my idle temp good? I've been monitoring it lately and with display off, my GPU idles around 55-60 C.

Idle is pretty irrelevant. Those cards will throttle down the fan pretty low at 2d clocks and not ramp up until the temperature creeps way up there.

Yeah. During gaming the fan will normally stay spinning at like 30% as the temp rises but as soon as the temperature hits 70C it instantly ramps up to 100% and sounds like a jet engine.
