that's really weird... your cards shouldn't be idling any higher with new drivers... try reinstalling the old ones?

Well, the factors for temperature are multiple. Simply because it was 46C one day and it's 49C the next day doesn't mean there's a problem.

as long your not around 85-90C full load it good it why after-market cooler exist hardocp akimbo review for some video card
there is after-market cooler for every card include new ati. instead of being around 70C full load it could be 50C to 40C with after-market cooler a major difference in cooling but cost money. just saying it Exist for people who want to sli and stuff who can't get it to OC or Tri sli without issue or Crossfire
