My GPU NVIDIA GeForce 6200 TurboCache(TM)
It has a temperature of 59oC i think it is too high.
My CPU temperature is 79oC while recently new fan charged
I own a 2.800 pentium
How can i reduce GPU temperature which might be the cause of high CPU tenp ?
Or it is just my idea?
Thanks for answer

Is the ambient temeperature (outside temperature) really hot?

For the gpu, i suppose you could check the fans for dust, it's not going to works so well if the fans are pushing an inch of dust along with your air. Similar thing with the cpu, although you might also be able to buy some new thermal compound and reapply/remount the cpu cooler onto the cpu if you feel up to it. But cleaning out dust would definitely be a big thing.

While it probably depends on where everything is located in your computer, I feel like the cpu wouldnt be causing a high gpu temp unless it was stressing the gpu for some odd reason; if anything it would be the other way around with the gpu fans pumping out heat that would rise to the cpu area

Check to make sure that your gpu drivers are up to date, probably won't do so much but it shouldnt hurt.
And finally do some research to make sure whether those temperatures are normal or not..for my cpu and gpu it would be high, but you should confirm what the average idling temperature is for yours.
