Video Card @ 48-50c Idle Temps?
OK so I have started overclooking my CPU abit this week. More so just to do it. Everything is stable no temps over 76 under full heat in Prime. I have my PCI clock manual and locked at 100mhz so that didnt change. I havent over clocked my Graphics Card at all, but I started noticing while playing Oblivion it was getting a little hot from time to time so I went in to the Nvidia control panel, adjusted the fan to manual to around 48% (hitting 50 or higher you could really hear the fan going) And it really hasnt cooled it down much. Today I happen to look and its idling at roughly 50c... I know thats hot for Idle compared to before when I first got it, even just a few days ago was idling in mid to high 30's c. Below is all the information of my system
Note: Running Dual Monitors. Main 32 Inch LCD HDTV via HDMI second 15 inch dell Monitor via DVI
Current Temps (just running basic programs and such)
CPU ~ Around 36c
Mainboard ~ 59c
TMPIN2 ~ 32c (Not for sure what that one is)
ACPI / THRM ~ Around 36c
Nvidia Geforce GTS 450 ~ 47c - 50c (idle)

Comments
Its normal, 45c - 55c at idle is normal if you are running 2 displays, and try removing dust from the graphics card once, and it should drop the temperatures by about 5c - 7c
