Just wondering, but it would seem my 60 degrees is a bit hot and was wondering if anyone cared to compare.
 
Depends on ambient, but at 30 ambient mine idle at 35-40C

Yes that is a bit hot, I run at just high 30's low 40's. If you're using some of the nVidia beta drivers there is a tempaerature bug that will make your temperatures read incorrectly. Check the nvidia driver forums on guru3d, they've gone over most of the issues.

If you're using the nVidia standard release drivers and getting those temperatures... I'm sorry... :rolleyes:
 
60 sounds about normal for an air cooled setup. Remember that GPUs are much more complex than CPUs and have almost twice as much transistors, so they will naturally run hotter than CPUs. Also I've noticed that some nVidia drivers make the chips run hotter. Which drivers are you using?

EDIT: You are talking about your graphics card temps right? You didn't mention which temps you were talking about so I assumed that's what you were talking about.
