Hello Guys,

I just worry about my new graphics card because temperatures seem quite high.
Idle temperature is 80C and under load it reaches 88C max.
I' m using a Soprano DX case with 14mm front intake fan and 12mm rear exhaust fan + PSU exhaust fan.ambient room temperature is around 28-30C.

I would like to know if i have to worry about these temperatures.

Thanks,
Perry

No dont worry these cards run HOT i mean REAL HOT!!!

I'm pretty sure its normal for these cards (8800's) cause my case Is A massive One (Thermaltake Armor) with 10 fans to keep it cool (1 x 25cm, 4 x 120mm, 2x 80mm, 3x 40mm)

My 8800GTX ildes at around 78-80 and under load goes up even higher i would presume

These cards do run hot and are dependent on case air flow. Try removing your system case cover and see if the temps drop. If so you may want to look into providing better air flow for your system to get lower temps.
