    Default Fanless gpu at 72C

    When i turn down my fanspeed my GPU is at 72C, while running AnarchyOnline..

    Turned my fanspeeds up it went down too 62C...

    Its a fanless GPU with a monster 2.5 inch heatsink on it..

    was a cheapo only 30 bucks


    Any idea where i can find "safe range" running temps..

    Using Speedfan

    most cards can go up over 90° and still be ok. You don't necessarily want the temps to be that high, but it won't suffer from an instant death (most likely), either.

    correct^^ i hate seeing more then 60C on my video card so i over do my cooling but the fact that yours comes without a fan means it will be fine. you could find a silent fan and somehow mount it to the heatsink if your worried.
