From Hardware Q&A, ATI 4 series is notorious for being hot a card (literally).

60c is still pretty low anyways.

No need to worry.

Generally I find stock cooler fans to be damn noisy. Hence, I always replace my GPU cooler with 3rd party cooler.

I am currently using Artic Cooling Tri-fan and it is permanently at 40% fan speed.

Furthermore, it never actually hits 60c and it is almost whisper quiet.

You can give Artic Cooling dual fans sandwich cooler a try.

Hi guys, just an update
I've cap my framerate at 80, highest temp reached is only 75c, average around 70c
Gameplay speed n everything didnt get affected at all.
xD
Gonna try to cap at 70 or maybe 60 to see if the temp goes lower^^

Hi, alexision. How is the update?
Just wonder the temperature u get after follow the recomended instruction (60Fps).
So worry about this issue, really want to confirm the effectiveness of the solution.
