After playing Civ4 and watching dvds (at the same time) I noticed that my gfx card temp according to the nvidia drivers was at 125 degrees. It now idles at 82. The thing is, I have had no crashes no BSODs no artifacts. MY question is, do I take this temp reading seriously?
I had noticed the temperature creeping up slowly, I had attributed this to a build up of dust, but there appears to be very little.
