High system temps :/

lee20010 · 13 Oct 2011 at 18:12

Finally installed a game that I would notice the jump from my last rig (X4, GTX460 that kind of set up) I started Crysis2, everything max @ 1080p (thats the max res it will go to am I missing something) and system temps are around 55-60c. GPU @ 65C and CPU at 60c.

I never realised the 6950 would kick out that much heat. Just seems....high to me? MaybeI'm over worrying as its the first time I've gamed since upgrading.

Yeah idle is 34c but whoa my 460 never hit 50c which was amazing. You know me Stulid, always worrying.

Yeah, i just felt the heat in the room when it kicked in 5mins gaming. Least on Crysis 2 theres detail in the background compared to my last system

Well just played witcher 2, temp was 65c. But every game I play it doesnt fullscreen. The taskbar is always on show even though I cannot click it :/

I have my res at 1080p, but it doesnt fill my actual screen. My nvidia card did the same but it allowed me to make a custom res but moving position.... any ideas?
