5090 GPU users discuss hotspot temperatures during high workloads

A user on Reddit is seeking information about the hotspot temperatures of their Palit 5090 Gamerock GPU during high-workload tasks such as image and video generation. They are experiencing hotspot temperatures between 92-98 degrees Celsius without a power limit during ComfyUI sessions, and around 82-91 degrees Celsius with a power limit. While these temperatures are within the normal range, the user is concerned about the significant difference between the regular GPU temperature and the hotspot temperature, which can exceed 30 degrees Celsius.
