Re: GPU running very hot a idle.

Hi Rossy87......

is this the first time you have ever checked your GPU temp..??, 75c is hot, not as a load temp, but idling that's insanely high....

d/l this app GPUZ & check the temps with this to confirm speedfan is reading correctly..


i'd use ''EVGA precision'' or ''Rivatuner'' to whack the GPU fan to 100%, you will also need to remove the card & clean it out, the HSF could be clogged with dust, or air flow within your case (i.e. fan config) needs serious attention...

cable management will also play a huge part in case temps, if its like a spaghetti junction in there then its gonna get hot......


let us know once you have confirmed the temps.....
