Just built a temporary shuttle system built around a SK21G, ive got a Sempron 2800+, 1Gb geil Value RAM and a 128mb 6800 LE all in there, my problem is that the 6800 seems to be running a bit too warm. Im using the built in Temperature monitor in the Nvidia official drivers and it claims that at idle its sitting between 55c - 60c and when in a game it can rise to 100c - 110c which by my understanding is far too hot although I havent experienced any crashes or lockups yet. Ambient temperatures seems to be around 30c-40c.
I think the problem is the SK21G's cooling, it only has 1 fan at the back which is connected to the CPU heatsink (CPU runs quite cool - 30c-45c under full load) and as far as I know, thats it. Ive tried cleaning the 6800 LE fan/heatsink to no avail. Is there anything I can do to improve the temperatures?
