8600GT hitting 71C in games
i have a 8600GT in a system and if i play a game on it like halo i will hit 71C after about 15 mins of play , is this a tad too warm? ( i think so ) i used riva tuner and set it to 100% fan , but it does not seem to help
any suggestions?

That isnt super high. But its high. Did you check and see if there was any dust or anything in the card? Maybe it needs a nice clean.

It should be between 55-65 at load and about 45-50 at idle. Have you got it overclocked ?
