Hot 7900GT?

[PP Mguire]

THey are fine. Like ive said before GPUs are made to handle 120c. THey are not your processor so getting to hot dosent really matter that much. Just make sure it dosent reach 120c and youll be fine. Somebody on here said they had a 6600GT that was full load at 100 i believe.

Why? Is it like super glued on? It shouldn't be that hard.

hmm...after running for about 24 hours it idles at 50c now. ANy idea why there's a difference?

I don't know why it does that but it's the same with my CPU. It always drops a few degrees after a bit of time.
