I would use the GPU Temperature Limit Extension for Automatic1111 (or the Webforge Fork) and be conservative with it. I had it set at 86, but that was way too high. I have it down at 82 now. I figured that me having my GPU Settings down as low as they can go for both the temp limit and gpu power limit would be enough to keep the GPU relatively cool, but it was consistently hitting the 87 degree limit. And now when it gets to that limit my system becomes unstable, which probably means my GPUs lifespan was lessened significantly (either that or I damaged the motherboard). I had to find another setting in my GPU software to have the clock speed throttle at lower temps, because the GPU temp limit option it was showing me was not really working.
Laptop or desktop?
If you're on a laptop, I suggest 'repaste' the heatsinks on both the gpu and cpu, youtube your model. Can use this this thermal pad, instead of traditional paste that will smear out, but typically factory paste isnt the best. Many get up to 20c degrees cooler with it.
If you're on a desktop then the cooling in the case is something to be looked at, like dust or airflow in the case is lacking.
This is desktop. I have an electric air blower for dust. I bought the cheapest midtower I could find. It's not good for air flow, but I thought I was making up for that with the limits I was putting on the GPU temp. The problem was that it wasn't following the limits I set, and I could see it was getting hot, but didn't do anything further until the damage was already done. They claim that 87c is within it's operating temperature, but not for this kind of workload.
That was the settings I was using, but this was the one I should have altered.
Now it makes sure the GPU throttles once it goes over a certain threshold. The way it was setup before it wouldn't do it until it reached 87c.

Not familiar with that. But reading the github, says you are better off looking at MSI Afterburner or similar to handle that.This is desktop. I have an electric air blower for dust.

Thing is you're not gaming, as in running it for heavy loads at 30-45min intervals. I don't know how long you do image generations for but thing is they may spike and then drop down in temps because some of the load jumps from cpu then needs GPU. So it's not constantly running hot like gaming. It may jump for a minute or two. At least that is what mine does.
You ever use GPU-Z to just watch what your gpu is doing while running or idle?
Also what are your fan settings, if you have any thats adjustable. Like mine I have it on extreme boost while rendering and it generally runs in 50's to 60's.
But back to your case, you have to have one with adequate large 120-140 fans, front back and if it has at the top. Makes a difference. There's always sales from time to time on decent cases $50-70.
man.. this thread if the bomb... flawless absolutely beautiful renderings. i wonder if they can do some realistic post of aunties, milfs without the perfect skins.. I'd love to see some rendering of everyday looking normalblack women fully clothed. Just want to see how what this softwre can really do.
On a 6GB RTX 2060 it's much worse on the GPU than gaming, especially with multiple passes. Last pass is 2304x1536 and if I do a batch of 20 that's about 30 minutes at 87 degrees. In gaming it might take me 60-90 minutes of gaming just to get to 83 degrees, while Stable Diffusion I will get to 87 degrees in 10 minutes.
Changing the fan curve didn't help as much as throttling, at least not on this GPU. I had another GPU where it helped a lot.
I think I might have damaged my GPU with my old case that I built in, trying to be cute/lazy/cheap, SMH. I took some spare parts and built in an old Pavilion a6200n desktop case. It started off as just an entertainment server, only doing lite work, and then Stable Diffusion came out.
I switched my case out a couple months ago. This is my new case. I have 2 in the front, one small vent in the back and a slim side vent in the back.
Tried leaving the cover off and putting a house fan blowing right on the inside? If that helps?
I was looking up the 2060 and others who mentioned it overheating. Some suggested overheating caused by the case, also the CPU actually running hot in the case (the backplate on your card picking up heat from the CPU), not adequately being cooled, possibly the heatsink on it could be changed to make it cooler.
Then other's said trying to run it with the case open as I suggested and others said if it's a one fan, there are aftermarket products to put two on it. Then some said MSI Afterburner to undervolt it and others suggested to repaste as I mentioned, especially if it's been running hot because what's there is factory original and could be dried out over time or just empty spaces where the chip meets the fan. I'd use that thermal pad over paste.
Check these.
This is to repaste it
But I don't think your card is fried or beyond repair. It's a simple fix if you're handy and can repaste it if undervolting doesn't help.
I have to give you your credit here. I was trying best just to stick with the default software, but MSI afterburner is working much better. I haven't had a crash since and it's running almost the same speed.
Is it running cooler? Tried undervolting? I'm no expert on doing it, but there's a lot of help on specific cards if you want to tackle that. But still think paste or thermal pad would make a world of difference because the age of the card, the original paste may of hardened up

At least I know that I won't have to worry about child support.
