whats TOO hot ?

im running a zotac amp 560 ti 1gb, if i remember correctly its factory OC to about a 570

after a whole round of BF3 on ultra on a 1600x900 screen it reaches temps of 75-80 c

should i go get some more 120mm/s at microcenter i have 4 in the case now

just manually increase you graphics card fan, its what i do

btw i am looking at these fans because with my case, while it does have 4 120mm fans there stock and while they are good, they are not THAT good maybe with these i can balance it out and have some good airflow

Yes, 75-80c isn't even hot, OC it some more, GPU's are fine up to about 95-100c.

Wanna tell that to my 8800GTS? I think its 4yrs now on that OC, my GTX470 hasnt put a foot wrong either, with a 150 core clock increase.

I'll see if I can grab a screenshot tomorrow, meant to be 38c. It idles at 55c or so, and highest I've seen is 98c, it wont go above 100c, because it just downclocks itself.

Both of my 560 ti's never reach 75 degrees.

With my 275 on default fan it would hit like 90 degrees before than fan bothered going past 40%.

Now with a fan curve on MSI afterburner it maxes around 82 degrees at 60-65% fan which is cool enough and since i use headphones i don't hear it while gaming.

Both of my 560 ti's never reach 75 degrees.

Thats cos its liquid cooled duhh, its in your sig.

75C is fine
