I didnt notice till i opened real temp, but one GPU shows 72C which i do believe isnt too bad, but the other shows 79C.

I dont have money for watercooling, so is there any way to cool down the two cards? Or are there better heatsinks for the gtx 275.

Thanks for any help
 
There's a current issue with the latest nvidia drivers cuasing a massive overheating issue and video cards to die. I'd immediately uninstall your drivers and install the old version. There's a huge thread about it on nVidia.com and in the 'nVidia Flavour' sub folder of the Video Card board on this forum.
 
its within specs for the card. no need for addisional cooling.

if you want to lower temps use the manual fan slider in the control panel.

and yeah, there are issues with the nvidia drivers, but 80C is not super hot. if it was over 90-95 i would start to make sure there are no blockages or something
 
That would be for the driver 196.75. I haven't updated my driver and i have 196.21.

The biggest reason why i worry about the temp is due to the fact my computer crashed while i was playing crysis. It restarted upon the blue screen and i was unable to see the problem. I havent had a blue screen ever since i overclocked it and it got me a little worried.

how are you so sure it is graphic related? 79c is normal underload. BSOD can cause by many things.
 
Ah, sorry i forgot to mention this. The 79C was when i had the fans on full (fan controller) as i worried it might have been related to temps when i first got the BSOD. The 79C is when i tested the cards by using the fans on full and only playing for 10 minutes.

Got the bsod this time when i am just booting the computer so i recorded it.

Driver_IRQL_NOT_LESS or equal

nvlddmkm.sys - Address FFFFF8800FFFF22E base at FFFFF8800FF72000 Datestamp 464C080b

Using google, i am not sure what the problem is.
 
That temperature seems perfectly normal. My last system I ran SLI and one card was almost 10c hotter than the other. GPU's run hot, 80c is fine for Nvidia card. It is within the normal operating temperature, which means it was designed to run that.
