Well my dad just bought a BFG 6800 GT OC and it idles at around 60C and under load can get up to 90-100C!! He bought this becuase it was supposed to have better cooling.His case has good air flow and high temps havent been a problem in the past.He took of the stock cooler and put some AS5 on it but that didn't make much difference.I told him to not worry and if it dies they will just send u a new one.Oh and he doesnt have it overclocked.Any one know if this is a common thing?
