Exclamation 8600GT Fatal Tremps.

Hi everyone, I was wanting to know what temp. is bad for a graphics card?

the reason im asking is that i have a stock case with no good cooling for a GPU and in idol the card runs at 53C and when playing in Fallout 3 it runs at 73C.

To fix this problem i am switching cases to a CM690

Eh I wouldn't worry. Evga has automatic fan settings that keep the card below 80C (unless the fan is going over that with 100% fan speed)
