Radeon hd 5870 heat question

[fatjoebro]

I'm using a radeon hd 5870 by xfx and while playing battlefield bad company 2 on max settings the card goes up to around 75C and the fan kicks in hardcore. I was just wondering if this is fine? idle my gpu is between 32C-40C
all other games ive got no problems card will run around 50-65c. 69C'ish With Dragon age 2 maxed. so basically should i be worried or are these temps fine? using an antec 1200

70's is fine for that card no worries.

Mid 80's is getting to the point where you would have to think about doing something. what do you have for a case and how's the air flow?

 

[fatjoebro]

Antec 1200 6fans i dont know how you measure airflow but the air out of the backfans is usually super cool till i play something so im assuming the airflow is good.

Your airflow should be good with that case.
