Computer Temperature Question

[btdvox]

Hi there, Im playing alot of games lately, and I have a question about my Comp's Temps, It Idle's around 44-46 and When i start playing games it goes up to 48-51
Is this ok? Do you think i should get a new VGA cooler I have a MSI NX6600GT AGP8X, I was looking at this one right here www.zalman.co.kr/eng/product/view.asp?idx=149&code=013 but it seems it has some problems with some of the 6600GT's because of either the HSI heatsink or because it comes off the card about 30mm, Im not overclocking my computer much, and either the VGA i overclocked it to 525/1.1.
I dont really know if 51 is too hot, but my feet do get sweaty after awhile haha,

Thanks for the help

and all the temps are in Celsius lol.

Thats not hot at all. Mine idles at 48c and hits about 59c after lots of gaming.

The core threshold on 6600GT's are 127c.

really, im not tlaking about my VGA though , my system temp shows 51-52 after about an hour of gaming

start worrying when it reaches 60+

oh, yeah thats fine. very good temps. that vf700 will work on the 6600gt agp, but you will have to cut down some of the ram sinks because the hsf will get in the way. there is a link here. this gives detailed info on how to install the cooler on your card.

i dunno...if your vcore is stock, then maybe add a few fans or upgrade your HSF

Nah if yo uguys are telling me its ok at 51-52 ill just keep it. seems to be running ok, i get no artifacts or anything.

Well, it is overclocked a bit, so those temps should be fine. No problem at all
