The throttle temp should be in Celcius as well as the other temp measurements.

The threshold is also in Celsius so you are fine.

... I certianly hope its a mistake cuz 120c* is really REALLY hot. You could almost boil water at the temperature Sentential said:I was about to say
Hehe, you can - water boil at 100c ;-) It's pretty funky that the boards can operate at those temperatures.
BTW, i just downloaded Expertool and that app really kicks ***

I have never seen one get that hot even though the threshhold is that high. even 70-80C is super hot. Evidently they are made to withstand extremely high temps. I have noticed on mine even though its water cooled that when the ram gets warm the performance starts to degrade.

OK now tell me what just happened.I ran 3dmark and only got 9100 but and i OCed it to 380 core and 800 memory and right before i ran it the temps were 58-59c now that i have ran it with the oc its temps are now 48c and steady what gives.Maybe it needed a break in period or something but with the core at 380 and the ram 800 the card is running cooler.11c cooler what happened?why would my temps drop when i overclock does this card up the fan speed when the oc number hit a certain piont.I dont hear the fan getting any louder.

325 core and 700 on the ram.I have been running tests with mine .If i oc it to 350 /725 i get a cooler card it drops the temps down 9-12c just at idle but if its cooler at idle it gotta be cooler at speed right.I wonder if this true with all 6800's or do i have a freak.I dont here they fan getting any louder and mine is the loudest fan in my case next to the 735 polo.But if i run it at 2100 prm's i can hardly here it.Section8 said:
