I have recently added a second monitor to my setup, and my idle temp has shot up from around 50c to right now 69c.

I am also using a custom fan profile in msi afterburner as my graphics card fan is very loud at default settings. Its at 45% speed which is loud enough to be a bit annoying...especially at night.

The sunny weather is also playing its part I suppose.

Anything I can do about this, my load temp hasn't changed just the idle is a bit toasty.

Is this normal and is a idle temp of 69c anything to worry about? Its a XFX 6870 1Gb.

Thanks
