Hi all,
I just bought a new videocard:
Gigabyte 6800 GT "GV-N68T256DH"

It's a really cool looking card with heatpipes and a blue glowing fan on it, It gives great performance and i get over 10000 points in 3Dmark 2003.

I'm just a bit worried about the temp..
It's 50c when idle and 60c when playing games, i dont know how hot a videocard supposed to run so can anyone tell me if this is a safe temp..?

ThanX

I'd say temps are ok but I don't know really!
My fx5600 runs at around high 50's low 60's.

Now i am really worried as my Gigabyte Geforce 6800GT GV-N68T256DH runs as 75c when idle and 105c when playing games even with a fan blowing air on to it from the bottom. What should i do?
It is still under warranty.
