NVIDIA GTS 250 CARD TEMP

[godspeedz]

I got a nvdia 250 gts graphic card,
when its on full load it hits 85 °C n on ideal 65 °C
so is that safe ??
I have a good amount of airflow in my chase with 2 extra fans !!

105C is the max temp according to nvidia. http://www.nvidia.com/object/product_geforce_gts_250_us.html

The card hitting 85c on load is normal.

But 65c idle is somewhat high.

It does touch 60 but not below that @ ideal.

YES

So that's it...
Single slot card is getting hot so fast, and for single slot then your temps are normal...
Just a little advice, next time, never buy a single slot card if u want to gaming...

But will this card be fine for a long run, say like 1 year at least,
just bought this card last weak !!

yes, it will...
Increasing the fan manually can help a lot.
What the state of your gpu fan right now? Auto?

Just increase it at 80% and posting again your temps...

Pulls down 5 only !!

then try it at 90%, don't get higher than that...
single slot card is much more hot rather than dual slot card.
