I have a overclocked BFG GTX275 for a while already, and i am experiencing pretty crazy temps.

Running Furmark or OCCT (GPU Test) it gets up to 96C, and idle right now it sits at 49C.

( I also already modded the bios so the fan spins up faster and earlier.)

I thought those temps cannot be right, so today i opened the thing up and applied new AS on the core...but temps are the same.

I dont have any problems in games - i also just let OCCT error testing, 96C but no errors or anything.

My case is pretty new and i think i have good airflow....but those temps are looking just odd to me. When i benchmark or let OCCT run it really feels like a hair-dryer because it's coming out so hot in the back...

(Room Temp right now is 25.5C, pretty warm, no AC)

Any idea - should i just ignore it and enjoy my games?

GPUs get hot, and 96 for an overclocked card sounds pretty typical to me. My stock GTX 275 can hit 90 in Furmark if it's hot in the room, but under typical load it doesn't reach nearly that high.
