My temps seem quite high, yet ive been running like this for 1.5 years... need some help in lowering them...

Here's a pic...


I have an 80mm blowing right on it and the case has good airflow... im thinking I need to reseat and check the cooler... im using stock btw... any help?

on a 7900gs
 
i have a gateway so i can only use stock cooler..... (long story with this purchase, my new q6600 machine kicks its nuts)
 
Holy crap!!! That is the highest temperature I have ever seen!!!! Stop using it, take it out and reseat the cooler with AS5 or get a aftermarket cooler. To me, 90C is way hot too. But man, 127! I am surprised your pc didnt shutdown or your monitor didnt turn off yet.
 
Took it out, I used my newly arrived artic silver thermal cleaner to take off the vmod on the card (for my 8800gt and acelero s1 v2)...

OMG the thing was a mess.. the shit was over like 4 voltage pins.. i can't even imagine what that thing was running at......

Now it loads 85-90C, which is much more reasonable...

I was running at that temple for 6-7 months atleast :rolleyes:

Do i win max gpu temp competition :D

BTW I HIT 129 degress Celcius, 1C off thermal shutdown temp :)
 
:eek::eek::eek:
clean the fan, reapply thermal paste, get an accelero s1


QFT. ... My 7900gs was up in the 80s but then I got a S1 (now load temp is 40). But if you cant do an S1, you'll just have to try what master pain said.
