I was wondering if it's normal for a GPU temp to increase within a span of like a week.
The card went from running at 34C idle when I first got it to running at 51C idle as of right now.
I am simply asking because of the 2 4870's that I had to RMA because of them dying, and one of the main characteristics were really high idle temps and even more insane load temps.
This card is a 5830 though and it seems like it might have a better heatsink/fan/cooling design.
Another thing to note is the extreme lack of fans in my PC. i basically only have one fan in my pc, so the temperature of my room will probably influence the temp of the card I assume?
Is 51C idle normal? and under load what is the highest temp it should reach? I really want to make this card last, which is why I am a little afraid of jacking up the fan speed because I want the fan to last as well.
