    I would just like to know what other peoples voltage regulator temps are idle and load please.

    My temps are: (zalman cu cooler)

    51.C @ 2d 270mhz@1.0v Idle

    68.C @ 3d 425mhz@1.33v load

    48.C idle for the VR

    60.C load for the VR

    I have noticed that the ultras have 5 VR chips and most GT's have 4 but mine has 3 is this weird? I bought this GT when they first came out so maybe it's a different model.

    WOW haha.. those are great temps.. for me STOCK 6800gt ran at 53C idle.. got as high as 80C on load.. I don't know how though. case had amazing airflow and i cleaned the card and fan... upgraded to a 7900gt and it runs like 38-40C idle.. 50C load

    your temps sound good though especially when mine stock were quite higher :) i should of gotten a zalman cooler :(

    I have read alot of people getting pretty high temps for the core but to make my question clear I need peoples voltage regulator(VR) temps, I used riva tuner and added the plugin to see mine.
