With stock cooling i was getting 70ish °c full load in rivatuner OSD.
now i put in my zalman and pci blower and still get over 70.
I just hit 76 after 10 minutes of ati tool artifact scanning. (no artifacting detected)
Now i'm thinking that something really isnt right the sink is properly seated and if i touch the zalman heatsink while at 76 the fins arent even remotely hot. On stock cooling at 70 you couldnt stand touching it for more then half a second.
Is rivatuner just too dumb to give the right temp reading or do the zalman cu fins not normally get hot??
I'm starting to think nvidia had their cores made by intel....only way i can explain how insanely hot this thing gets!!
