most retail heatsink cards will do 50cidle to around 70c load.
Mine was doing 55c idle and around 70-75 load with the retail heatsink.
39idle - 45 load with waterblock at 485 core.
Leadtek A400 Ultra TDH:
- 62 idle
- 80 load
- maximum temperature after one hour of rthdribl: 86-87 Celsius
I've seen some very low load temps, like 63 or 65 or 68... How is this possible? Are you ppl sure that you read the temp while playing and not after you get out of the game? Try running doom3 in window mode and watch the temps in parallel, with the nv cpl opened in background. The temps usually drop 5 to 10 degrees in 5 seconds after you exit a 3d game. Or, better, try run rthdribl in a window for half an hour, with the nvidia control panel aside, and watch for the mercury raising.
