So I just bought a GeForce GTX 550 Ti to replace my GeForce 9600GT Superclocked 675MHZ 512MB. Main reason for buying it was because I play Diablo 3 and thought it would give a performance increase.

I FuMark in the background while I was playing tonight and took a screenshot of how my card was running. You can check it out here:

As you can see, it runs at about 78 degrees and the fan speed is 60%. The memory being used isn't very much but it did get up to about 550 MB during my playing session. I had previously purchased a Radeon 7770 HD but it didn't work and would keep crashing. Don't know if it was just the card or what but I took it back for this 550.

I also took a screenshot after I was done playing the game and sitting idle for awhile: http://imageshack.us/a/img811/6008/card2y.png

Thank in advance for any help :D

Well it was running at almost 80 so what's an extra 10? Isn't it running a little hot or is that normal?

Thats normal, I use to have a regular computer case and my card was running at round 80.

Now I switched to a lanboy air and I get 70 max with a OC
