Mine seems to idles around 60-70.C

I thought rather than start a new thread I thought maybe posting in an older one would be better?

But My main question is: After reading on poor performance with drivers for the 9800 GX2
What nvidia drivers do people reccomend is best for gaming with these days with my leadtek 9800 GX2

Many thanks
 
Ah the latest driver? I was wondering this question as Nvidia apparently have stopped dedicated driver support for these cards SO was wonder whether to roll back or not or if the one you mentioned would indeed prove greater performance.

Thanks for the info Rroff
