Video card Temp

My nvidia 7950 GT idles at 68~ and when I play games, it is around 72-3~~

I overclocked it, should I get more cooling?

your fine....nothing unusual unless you have to get a new unit.

Unless you're getting artifacts and stuttering during heavy gaming then your graphics card should be fine. My 7800GTX can run up to 85c and works fine during gaming.

Should be fine.I would only worry if you start getting artifacts or lock ups,otherwise I would not worry.Enjoy and Goodluck.

Like others said, if you're not artifacting, there's nothing to worry about.

Have you played around with the fan speeds?

Yes, I made it so that my Videocard's fan is always running at maximum speed.
