GPU core temp 54c, and ambient temp 36C, after playing UT2004 GPU temp is @ 69-70C. Forgot to check ambient temp. Are these OK temps?

Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
How is this 6800Ultra temp?

they are fine
I've installed an ASUS V9999GE which is essentially the same dog as a V9999 Ultra. I've had major overheating problems with this card and ASUS I see is still holding up their reputation for the worst support in the business. After four weeks of badgering them for support I got an email asking me to check for and remove dust from my brand new VGA card. 
The card runs 62C under no load, just sitting at the Windows desktop. But launch Doom3 at just 1024X768 and it will over heat within 15min. It will reach 85c on the GPU and 80c on the RAM and has declocked to 250Mhz just to hold that temp.
I do have an IDE RAID card installed in the PCI slot next to the AGP card.
However I have a watercooled dual Xeon system with 3 case fans running just to try and get the temp down on the vid card, with little help.
Not sure if anyone else reading this has a ASUS V9999 series card but the fan speed seems very slow on mine even at 100% throttle. It only turns at 3500RPM MAX and my old GF3Ti card ran at 5500RPM. If anyone else out there has one of these, I'd like to know what you find.
I've ordered some super duper long IDE cables so that I can move my RAID card down a slot. We'll see how much of an impact this has. Other then that I've only been able to find one water cooling solution that will fit on my AGP card and still have a usable PCI slot next door. Seen here is anyone likes... http://snt-systems.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=137
Might have to order one of those if ASUS keeps screwing me. You'd think after spending close to $1000 Canadian ($5.25 American that you'd be able to get some better support.
My rant is over now....
