Hi All,
I'm just wondering what's the acceptable/viewed-as-normal temperature for both CPU and GPU when gaming (fast FPS twitch)

My system:
E8400 3GHZ
8800GT Gigabyte
Stock HP Mobo (DC7900 Minitower)
3GB stock ram
No additional cooling fan etc
Xtreme gamer soundcard - Creative
250GB Hard drive - Samsung
 
I had that chip and GPU in a computer I built a while back. Pretty common for that 8800 to get into the 80's (c)
and that chip usually is pretty cool, but it depends on your setup. When gaming, you really shouldnt see your chip get over the 50's (c).
