Vista - Whats the average Temperature for a geforce 9600 gt?

What is the average temprature??

the reason for asking i was thinking of over clocking it a bit with Rivatuner but i dont have much fans only the PSU one case fan holes thats in the case alot a CPU Fan and of course the fan thats on the card right now according to speed fan it always runs at 43c-45c most of the time idk how to check whiles playing games but yeah

i was not aware that ''speedfan'' would detect GPU temperature..??

the highest you want to take any GFX card for 24/7 use is about 75-80c, it will do 90c for short bursts, but anything under 80c is fine for load....

if your card is @ 45c idle then im guessing load wont be that high, so there's a little OCing room there, but the increase in performance is going to be very small, on a card like that you wont even notice a difference in the real world IMO...

yeah speed fan apparently does lol it says GPU:44C

please send me a pic of speedfan..... im willing to bet its reading something else.

is your 9600 a single slot card..?? if so there's no way its idle @ 45c, unless your rig is in the garden...lol

There it is Rivatuner is also there and it is in a garden see the backround

is that garden joke you said bad for that temp XD

lol....... yep i see the problem, your panda has been messing with the keyboard again.. jk


well, that's the first time i have seen speedfan reading a GPU..?? why do i not have that sensor..??

thats a very cool card!!, crank it up mate..... use ''ATItool'' to test for artifacts as you go..

if you bugger this up its gonna force a reboot, so don't push too hard...

Alright well this a new speed fan i just downloaded to its um 4.73 idk if it makes a diffrence but this is a nividia card PNY geforce 9600 is it ok to use that ATItool?

Yep ..it works on all cards....... don't alter frequencies with it use rivatuner for that, just use the 3d cube for benching.....

650 1625 900
core shader memory

And now i have it as 701 1752 955
and while playing COD5 speed fan is giving me 48-50C is that horrible? when should i stop im about to download ATItool lol
