    Is this weird or what?..

    I use evga precision tool. And I usually run around 570/1336/850.. and the temparature usually peaks to 68C.. TOPS.

    Now I'm running at stock settings 450/1080/790.. and the temp still caps at 68C?

    What is going on.. do I have some freak system? Not complaining.. but I'm wondering why is this happening? O,o

    Thanks

    your fan might be working a bit harder to maintain the same temps without OC.... usually overclocking without touching the voltage doesnt really cause an increase in that much heat.
