Graphics temperature

[clayton88]

Hey.

I just found out my GPU temperature idles on 73C. Do any of you know how I can cool my gfx down? Any programs where I can turn up the fan-speed or anything like that?

Gfx: Nvidia 9800GTX/9800GTX+ 512 MB

Thanks.

If you are really idling at 73c you need to do something other than adjust your fan speed. Do you mean under load it reaches 73c ?


Use one of the following and be sure to click on manual settings to adjust the fan speed. Resist the urge to increase clock settings.


EVGA Precision or MSI Afterburner

It's GeForce btw. Don't know if it has anything to say? According to the links you just gave me.
