That's very interesting. Seriously: duh! Video cards get very hot when they run. They're rated to get to very high temperatures, so you shouldn't worry about it. And new video cards get hot now in either 2D or 3D mode since the run at such high frequencies...
 
many thanks for the reply,sorry about the post i left out the part about being worried about the high temp

40c-60c is normal. Even on CPU's , but since it is easier to keep the CPU cooler now. CPU temps tend to be around 35-55c on avg.
