New gaming rig (built a few months back)

Q6600
4GB Ram
9800GX2

The graphics card (9800GX2) runs really hot under idle, temperatures are showing 70 on one card and 60 on the other after being idle with 100% fan for several days (literally didn't touch the computer during the time). 60 and 70 CELSIUS that is. Is this normal or is there some problem that needs to be adressed?

More or less what I get with the GX2. Good thing is, they tend to not get much hoter (mine reaches 85-90 at load) with crushing use.

Alright, thsnks, i just thought i'd check. I know they're okay up to almost 100C, so it's fine.
