GPU temp.

Just finished playing BF2 for 2 1/2 hrs, On the ode3 res at 1920x1080 and was wondering if these temps are where they should be. Do the rest of the numbers look ok. Don't want to fry anything.   thanks  pos

Downloaded the afterburner, How do I go about making changes without messing anything up. I never messed with this stuff before. What should the settings be set at.    pos

Your right rice. I forgot that was just for gaming. Here's how to set temps in afterburner http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tvNFvuRc2Pk&feature=youtube_gdata_player

Here are the temps from playing BF2 for only about 20 minutes. Have to run some errands will play more later. Starting to worry about all this.

I did adjust the fan using MSI afterburner. Is this setting good or did i miss up.   pos

holy hell thats high lol. Make it like a curve, 50C will be 50% fan speed and so on.

What I meant rice is that if you for example run linx or fah smp, those temps would be higher, and those are the ones we need to see so that we can see the max temps he is hitting and if we are right and he is above 85c he needs to figure out the problem.

I also want him and others get into the habbit of stressing the cpu with a cpu intensive app, like linx, fah smp, intelburn, and then look at cpu temps, or stress the gpus with something gpu intensive and then look at gpu temps. Lately we are seeing lot of people stress the cpu and look and the gpu temps or vise versa.

At the end his game temps are not what he wants to be judging his cpu max temps by, he needs to know for sure if max is above or below 85c and for this game temps don't mean much.

surely you know that I too know that his game temps can tell people like me and you there is a problem, which is why I asked him to stress the cpu with cpu intensive app.

rice you should really try and run the fah gpu client from my post, let it fold one work unit (WU), let me look at your settings before you do, after you finish one, then tell me if you have seen temps that high on the gpus before.

@pos, in your first pic I see max gpu temp at 85c, and cpu temps at 70c, how come in your second pic the numbers are so much lower? in the second pic was hw running when you had the cpu and gpu under stress? if yes with what?

He needs to put his system under stress with proper apps once and for all and see what is going on.

what he is doing is not giving him the real info.

Here are the numbers from the prime95 test. Ran it for 30 to 40 min. Are these numbers alright. Thank you guys for your input. Temp in room was at 74degrees.

Hey guys, here are the scores from the FAH GPU tracker and the temps from CPUID.

DST4ME, Hey guy. Will run the smp friday, I am off. Should I do the gpu after that or wait until you see the smp test first. gpu #1. 56c, fan 1950rpm, gpu #2. 40c, fan 1770 at idle right now. room temp 78 deg. Is there a easy way to increase the fan speeds to help cooling.     thanks  pos

i would set the fan profile to look something like this. This works the best for me because i have it set to level off the fan percent increase as its getting a bit loud. This is good enough to keep both cards in the mid 60's C during most gaming.

dont you have a ati card? the 500 series(almost sure most other nvidia cards do to) idles at 40% and its almost inaudible. 40% is the lowest you can go, you must have a ati card or are missing something.

yea i figured as much being that the loudest thing in my case when the fans are at 40% are my case fans lol. The fans on the 500 series dont really get loud until around 70% or so.
