Idle temps for the MSI Twin Frozr 7850

Hi all,

Just put my card in and with light usage (web browsing) it's sitting around 28-30 degrees. Is this good? Should I fiddle with the fans to get it lower?

There fine, if your using FireFox it has an "Use hardware acceleration" option that's enabled by default.

Ah right sweet, I was using Chrome.. swapped to IE, may try Firefox. Thanks a lot, when I play some games I'll post some proper under-load temps and get some opinions, what do you get under full load?

Around 69c for me

Roughly 50-60c (max) for me but ive got 8 Venom fans in my case, blowing a good airflow.

Thanks guys, when playing games I'm getting between 50-60, I'm happy with that. :-)

Is it worth overclocking this card?
