I currently use two monitors, 23 inch (HP w2338H) and a 25 inch (HP 2511x). They are connected to my GPU by HDMI and extension HDMI since the card came with two DVI ports. The GPU temp when having the two monitors connected usually stays around 32-35 when idle. When I hook up a third monitor thats 23inch to DVI without extension my GPU temp jumps 10 degrees from 32ish to 45ish-48. Is this normal within the card or is it some sort of bug or is there a solution?
