It is probally an incorrect temperature reading, as you will be seeing artifacts at that temperature.

I see you have a graphics card as you exhaust fan...

Turn the exhaust fan off, it may be over powering it.

Is that idle or load temperature btw?

 

[Norcent]

how can you tell if its idle temp or not?

 

[Trifid]

where you using a program to monitor the temperature when in a game? Or where you rendering anything?

 

[Norcent]

I was reading the threshold sorry guys!!!

my graphics card is only at 45ºC!!!
