    What temperatures is everybody out there running?

    I use FanGUI and I tweak my fans so they don't come on as much, but my CPU tends to stick around 35C under regular web browsing use, and my Geforce 6800 stays around 45C

    While gaming, my CPU gets up to 45C and the GPU is around 54C that is with the CPU fan on slow and GPU fan on high.

    I also overclock my GPU as high as it will go. Just wondering what everybody else was getting as far as temps.

    thats about what mine is, highest i've noticed my GPU is 56c but that was after gaming for like 2 hrs. with my clocks at 375/785. what are you O/C at?
    another trick instead of using FanGUI try this. When your GPU and CPU are running hot press Fn+r, then change the Fan2 PWM to 40

    With i8kfangui, the best they seem to do is around 3800rpm when set on high.
    using Fn+r you can set the internal fans @ 4600RPM. pretty cool huh!
