These temps sound about right for the resolution your playing at and the fan speed that your using.
I dont use the dynamic fan i use 2 settings,30% for idling around internet and 65% for gaming, i use the end and home buttons on the keyboard,try that and see what you think.

Even at that resolution, just seems surprising the temps get that high, wouldn't think that game would be that demanding.

Has anyone gone to water cooling on these yet? I know Koolance has Waterblocks available and over at Evga in the main 690 thread, Jacob from evga posted a picture of the Hydrocooper 690 and stated blocks will be available seperately.

I have never done water anything other that using a H100 on my CPU and I am taking a few weeks off of work to burn some vacation time and am really having an itch to go to water, but never done it before. Is Koolance a good brand? It seems they are the only ones that have blocks right now and just need some input. I will say upfront I am total noob at water so please have patience with me and my questions.

My thoughts are is going complete water for CPU and GPU's. I am looking at a bunch of stuff right now and think I have things that I would need. If you are running water, would 1 120mm radiator that supports 3 120mm fans be enough to water cool both CPU and 2 690's?

The only thing that has me scared is tearing apart the lovely 690's and adding the blocks to them because if I f'up, I am out alot of money...so any advice on how hard/easy it is to add a water block to a gpu would also be appreciated.

Considering the first throttling point is only at 70 degrees I would personally put one in. After doing that to my 580 (and the CPU) I would recommended it everytime - of course with the 500 series you can raise the volts while you're limited what you can do with this card..

Ok, I was getting insane temperatures (80-85 C) in Diablo 3 after upgrading to 301.42 so I decided to play with the nvidia control panel settings and ended up doing this

Now I'm getting around 45 C on both cores with 20-25% usage.
I have no idea what I have done as I haven't slept for the 48 hours but I thought I would share this and maybe someone will figure it out before I wake up

LE: neeeevermind that, I am stupid and tired... I found what I have done: I enabled the VSYNC from the nvidia control panel.
