Everyone else with an 8800 GT says that they idle around 40c-45c; none of the people I read of specified their fan speeds.
When I first got the card, it would idle at 43c with the fan running 100%; now it Idles at 49c with the fan @ 100%, and 57c on "automatic". I just finished dusting the card (and the whole case) with a tech vac, but that had no effect on my gpu's temperature (however the cpu cooled 2c).
-The card is and has always been OC'd to 648/956.
-I always run my fan at 100%
I'm not sure what my load temps are; I'll go play crysis for a little and post them.
Any ideas of why I'm idling higher?
