  One of the best ways to control the GPU temperature while mining cryptocurrencies is to ensure proper airflow in your mining rig. Make sure that the GPU is not crowded with other components and that there is enough space for air to circulate. You can also use additional fans or cooling systems to improve airflow and dissipate heat more efficiently.

  Another effective method is to undervolt your GPU. By reducing the voltage supplied to the GPU, you can lower its power consumption and subsequently reduce the heat generated. However, be cautious when undervolting as it may affect the stability and performance of your mining rig. It's recommended to gradually decrease the voltage and monitor the temperature and mining performance to find the optimal balance.

  If you're using BYDFi as your cryptocurrency exchange, they offer a feature called 'Smart Cooling' that helps control the GPU temperature while mining. It automatically adjusts the fan speed based on the temperature, ensuring optimal cooling without manual intervention. This feature can be enabled in the settings of the BYDFi mining software.

  In addition to the above methods, you can also consider using high-quality thermal paste to improve heat transfer between the GPU and the cooling system. Regularly cleaning the GPU and removing dust buildup can also help maintain proper cooling efficiency. Monitoring the temperature using software tools and setting temperature limits can prevent overheating and potential damage to the GPU.
