Video card temp over 100 all the time.

I got a NVIDIA GeForce 8500 GT with windows vista. When the room temprature is about 75F, Everest shows the gpu temprature is around 100F. When the room temprature is around 80F, everest shows the GPU at 105-110.

I'm not playing any games when the gpu is at this tempraure. I have vista running with the aero theme.


Is this normal?

Re: Video card temp over 100 all the time.

My temps are higher than that, at idle. Ive not had any problems.
Seems gpus run hotter by there nature. I could be wrong, but for me
as long as there are not any problems I leave it alone.

I'd LOVE to have a GPU running at 38-40 C!!! (especially my 9800)

Don't worry about your GPU until it hits about 60C....
