Its that normal ?? From 63 Celsius to 70++Celsius when i start gaming .

Using MSI NX8500GT

Need advice guys

Its normal i guess.


But as a precaution, clean the GPU heatsink and reapply thermal paste.

not normal for 8500GT but normal for my HD4850
LOL

Hmm, abit suspicious coz it jump more than 10celcius is kinda high ..

I did clean dust but the dust which stick on the heat sink hard to get off

Have been search some forum some said normal some said the other way ...

once i face the same problem. turn out i forgot to peel away the plastic cover over the heatsink.

My card don't have any plastic cover just the heat sink and fan

It's transparent. that's why i didn't notice it in a first place. when i removed the card to test the other card, i saw a notice in red "Please Remove Before Use".

70c is normal. Anyway can just try apply new good paste and clear the dust.

It's normal, graphics card gets hot when you're gaming since it's running at full load. If you want to lower temps, you can consider after market coolers like these ones:

better compared to my fren .
he was getting 88C idle on 4850 .
then i did full clean and add better thermal paste and significantly drop to around 50C on idle .

70C in gaming is acceptable la~ GPU can shot up to 100C

my pass 8500gt reach 110c.. .

wah! same as my cpu der, when play full hd movie. , but gpu maintain 60c..

that why dont use stock cooler...aik u cpu temp 110 ...

Seriously over 100 celsius ?? Won't get any trouble like bsode,error or auto shutdown stuff ??

I just try play modern warfare 2 and after i close the game Wow amazing increasing to 80++ celsius but so far i play still ok smooth and nothing happen ...

The thing is just worried it will spoil my card

GPUs are made to stand heat as high to 100c+/-,but of coz whn it reach tht point its ok to be worry,jz tht it wun do any severe dmg/shut downs like cpu

normal for nvidia.... but better put ocz freezer lol

can tell me wats the program to check cpu+gpu temperature?
Thanks.

nice and easy

CPUid, GPUz or Speecy are among the best choice...
go n try

empangan...im worried tht my gc is reaching 70'c...i think its not advisable to put lots of heat into ur case...will effects other components also

temperature wise, 70-80 is considered acceptable .
u should worry when it start hitting 90 .

if still worry, then get a good air flow casing, and add a fan to blow on the 8500gt heatsink.

just open your casing better...

my last use GC was HIs 4850 and it temp around 48 to 54...
