I start to feel a bit uneasy about the temps my graphics card is reaching. I looked up the AMD/ATI websites to find a specification for my card but did not succeed.

Room temperature is 29°C (84.2°F).

I'm not even sure the figures the program is displaying are correct but usually it is only up to 70°C.

And just now the temp dropped to 75°C. Strange.

It's a passive card, the case is a small factor Shuttle xpc 38.

Does anyone use a similar card and monitors the temps?

Here's my two 2460's:



Room temp ~ 76 F

I don't get the Fan setting, as the cards are passive..

Ooops....

Looks like I should buy a fire extinguisher and place beside my PC.

My next PC will have a normal (mid-sized) case. I think that will be better.

My 2460: 62 °C / 143.6 °F (measured with GPU-Z)
Room temp: 23.6 °C / 74.5 °F

@FGBL07: which tool did you use for temp measurement in your screenshot above?
