94 Deg Celcius on my Geforce6600GT!!!!!!!!

i just get my 6600GT last week, i play games in stock freq and its impressive compared to my OLD FX5600 VIVO...

its a LEADTEK A6600GT 128MB AGP with stock cooler. The temp here in philippines is almost the same there in INDIA... My idle temp is about 44-45C and MAX TEMP on LOADS is about 75-77C.

I am hoping to bring the temp down, after i will change my case... i did not try benching it with 3dMark 2005. but my score in 3DMark 2003 is 7726 everything in default. Using 81.95 WHQL from NVIDIA...

Is this normal for 6600GT @ stock(500/900)?

 

your proc. is holding up your score ..... i get ~8314 at everything at default ....though you can increase the mem to 1000 .....

 

Ya, but not that much... i think its the mem... Only 512, i read some thread that theres a big leap in FPS from 512 to 1Gig... Also, its not dual channel... Its an OLD RIG, almost 2 years...

 

Man I thought I was going hot, my lovely Asus 6600 GT pulls a degree of 70C/72C at loads, and when idle around 40, he is stock clocked, so I have a bit room to o/c left, however I going to get the Zalman VGA cooler mentioned before, because I really want to get the best out of it.

Anyway Goodlcuk gaming guys.

P.S. I now Celeron sucks, but hey everbody needs to start at a low budget(When possbile I'll get and AMD soonXD)

 

Actually LEADTEK performs well than ASUS when it comes to TEMP... I have those temp because my rig is not well ventilated... Planning to change case...

 

i usually prefer asus over other brands for some unknown reason

just that at the time of buying my 6600gt, asus didnt make one yet, nor was there any pci-e 6800series ready to buy >_<

and, after many benches and recordings, i found 38C idle (@592/1181) and 61C max ( 3dmark05 2 times with riva monitoring )

38C idle (@stock) and 57C max ( 3dmark05 all night long with riva monitoring/recording )

 

59 idle 89 load here..satisfied enough . bah overclocking

 

whats your ambient temp?

 

AMBIENT IS 35deg inside pc

 

ambient ranging around 30~32c but room temp is around 10~12c

 

I just thouth that 94*c is good temperature.

For Sauna xD (or is it IN "who cares")

 

LOL, u can burn ur hands on it

 

i've decided to mod my cabinet and install two 120mm fans ..one near the card.....this'll bring my inside ambient temps to 30c...i hope
i gonna reach that 4500 '05 score..

Test Your card with the rthdribl Program its way better than 3dmark
BTW leave for one night and leave rivatuner record temps. then you will see the temps.
