Well, I've tried downloading 3 utilities so far to check my 4870 temperatures, and they're all spouting (similar) high numbers.
When I first start the system up, I'm idling in the low 50s and such (normal) but after 30 minutes at the desktop (or 5m of a game, even if I exit out of it and let it sit at idle again) it rises between 66 and 79c!
GPUZ's second sensor is reading an astounding 91c at idle for most of the time.
The side of my case is off. My CPU is watercooled, etc...
What gives? The temps don't seem to change much during gaming load though... They go up to around 95c.
