So, after ive been playing a session of Mafia, my GTX 560 peaked at 72C.

After an hour long or so session of BC2, also about 71-73C.

This is Twin Frozr 2, Factory OC'd to 880mhz and I OC'd it to 910.
In furmark it can get as high as 82C

First question, are those temps reasonable ?
Second question, Ive got 2 free top slots avaible for 120mm fans, would the temps increase if I bought another 2 fans ?

thanks
 
Case is some OcUK Value ive bought ages ago, mid tower, as long as im concerned its Avenge Power something.

And, what do you mean with intake/exhaust ? I thought you can decide if you want the air to blow inside the case / exhaust out of it.

That's the cause of the temps then, the case. I meant you need more air going into the case, rather than more air going out of it. Some good fans should drop temps by a few degrees, but your temps are nothing to be seriously worried about anyway.

If you have the money I would recommend upgrading case to something like this http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CA-212-CM&groupid=701&catid=7&subcat=29

depending on budget of course.
