Temp high?

My onboard graphics, Nvidia 8300 is showing as 80c. Other programs show it the same. Is this too high? The temp is just running windows!! No crashes etc. Just wondering if it is too hot!

My 8800GT runs at 65-70 on idle. The 8xxx cards do seem to run very hot.

So, it is ok then? This is an onboard chip.

80C is nothing unusual, they are designed to run at these temps. I wouldn't worry. Just make sure the ventilation is adequate to get as much cooling as possible.
