My card is a BFG 7950GT OC. It runs at 65C idle, at fairly high fan speeds, and at load it goes into the mid-90s. I just did a case cleaning, and the fan/heatsink aren't clogged or anything. The fan is definitely functioning (stock cooling). Why is it getting this hot, and what kind of effect does that kind of heat have on this card?
