Hello, I actually own a Nvidia Geforce GT 430

Default: Clock 700MHz, Memory 533MHz, Shader 1400MHz

Overclocked: Clock 912MHz, Memory 720MHz, Shader 1824MHz (Its really overclocked, I get like +8fps)

Its fully stable and max temp is 45ºC, why I get that low temperature?

Well, I could only guess that the fan is spinning fast enough to keep it cool. Or maybe your case has enough cooling to help the card stay cool.

The card also has a TDP of 49W, so it's not going to run very hot even if overclocked.

Mmh can I pull it to more? Voltage ATM 1080V

Yeah, but before you try that, run FurMark with max settings and see what kind of temps you get.

I realize the card only needs a small amount of power to run and should not run as hot...but that does not mean the only reason it is running cool is because of its TDP. If something takes only 50watts but is overclocked and wattage increased to 55 watts, the fan might go from 50% to 75% to maintain the same temperature. Increasing wattage causes increased heat. So I don't know why you felt the need to call me out like that.

That aside, obviously the GPU fans would have to move at a faster rate, unless the case was already sufficiently cool to negate the increased temperature of the overclocking.

Sorry, I didn't mean it like that, I just wanted to add to your answer (which I though was good and therefore up-voted it), so that all of the possible reasons for the low temps would be brought up.

Oh ok. Sorry probably took it the wrong way..I do that sometimes. Thanks for replying.

The max temp on FurMark was 53ºCelsius or centigrades

What's the stock voltage?

That's actually really cool; My GTX 760 reaches ~70C under full load in FurMark.

@NBSN: No problem.
