Hi, I’m using my PC also for few games using Steam and I notice that after a game the AMD X570 GPU temp is very high, so I run “sensors” few time and I notice that the GPU fan are running very slow, here some numbers
Before the game:
sensors
amdgpu-pci-0e00
Adapter: PCI adapter
vddgfx: 812.00 mV
fan1: 1682 RPM (min = 0 RPM, max = 3200 RPM)

power1: 35.07 W (cap = 160.00 W)

(crit = +89.8°C)
During the game session:

Any way to have the fun running at more speed when temp increase ?
Thanks
What is you question exactly ? There is not in your message.

You’re mentioning sensors
but you never mentioned fancontrol
if you don’t like the defaults RPMs…
Please be aware that running fans at a higher speed than the default might wear out your fans sooner!
For more info:
man fancontrol
For a GUI version:
pamac install fancontrol-gui

It is generally more safe to have the firmware (BIOS) control the fans.
There are some risks when fan speed is controlled “manually”:
What happens if the program controlling the fans fails? The computer could overheat and get damaged.
Higher temperatures could cause more wear on the electronics, resulting in a shorter lifespan.
Higher fan speed could wear out the fan mechanics.

To be honest, 63°C at peak is still safe. I will not worry. If it’s get 10 or 15°C higher, i would be concerned though.

Thanks to all,
@Fabby I have fancontrol, but don’t use it.
@Wollie BIOS don’t have setting for GPU fan only control for CPU/CASE fan
@yannssolo Yes I know but is strange tome that the fan don’t increase speed as Temp goes up

From what you’ve responded I’m concluding: You’re afraid that your fans don’t spin up enough but that fear is not based on any tangible data, so let’s take that fear away:
Let’s stress your CPU for 1 minute:
pamac install stress-ng
Open 2 terminals
in one terminal you run:
watch --interval=3 "sensors"
In the other one you execute:
stress-ng --cpu 16 --timeout 60
Let’s stress out your GPU now:
pamac install glmark2
glmark2
Wait and enjoy the pretty pictures and ignote anything it does in the console.
Now tell us: What is the maximum T° you’re seeing and do the fans spin up now?
Note: As you didn’t post an inxi --admin --verbosity=7 --filter --no-host --width
which is the the minimum required information for us to be able to help you and which you sould always post regardless of the question you’re asking (Personally Identifiable Information like serial numbers and MAC addresses will be filtered out by the above command) I’m assuming you have an AMD 7 3800X CPU which has 8 cores / 16 threads total and a AMD RX 570 GPU.

Have you actually read the article? If yes: Your system, your rules, your decision!
I’m pretty sure you haven’t read the article, because:
note: The largest server one of the authors of this wiki article has ever installed had, indeed, 8TB of RAM and even that machine has the above swap settings, so why not your machine?
That author happens to be me and this is the machine:
And that has 91GB of swap on a 256GB RAID-0+1 NVMe because it’s a server and it doesn’t hibernate…
