Hi all. First post.
Sorry if this sounds stupid, I have little experience in cooling PCs. I've got an old video card - an Asus v8420 Deluxe (chipset GF 4 Ti 4200). SpeedFan / SmartDoctor show the following temperatures for the core (video RAM is about 10 C lower):
Idle: 53 C
After a few 3DMark loops: 58 C
The strange thing is the video card heatsink doesn't feel hot (even when you touch it during 3D Mark).
Should I be concerned?
Other specs, just in case:
- Sempron 2200
- Kingston 256 MB DDR 333 MHz
- ASRock K7T6V (chipset KT-600)
- Seventeam 350 W PSU
- Onboard LAN/Audio
- No overclocking - other than v8420, which is slightly overclocked from stock (260 core, 550 memory)
Thanks in advance,
AJT.
