I recently picked up a Geforce 7600 GT for my old P4 computer. the card works fine, but the temperature readings that the nvidia monitor are giving me don't seem to make sense. the card idles around 58 degrees Celsius, but even after playing a game, the temperature stays roughly the same, by that i mean 1 or 2 degrees difference. I even overclocked it 10Mhz and the temperature hasn't changed. Is there something wrong with the card? Because these numbers don't seem accurate to me.
