need some insight on how my temps are doing

TruBD · 01-22-2003, 03:48 PM

ok i just installed my DD video card waterblock on my ti4200, with my wc now cooling CPU, NB, and GPU (all are the latest dangerden blocks)

this is the setup
Pump > Dtek heatercore > Res > CPU > GPU > NB > Pump

i have a room temp of 25-26C. these are my temps just using normal applications, chatting and/or surfing the web: My cpu is at 31C and my GPU at 37C. Now i want to know do these sound reasonable for my ambient temps. I am especially concerned about my video card. I want to know if 37C is good or bad for a watercooled gpu. I really dont know what the temps were before i installed the waterblock because i didnt have a temp probe then (i bought one after i got the block).
What are some of your video card temps watercooled or not?

Thanx in advance

EDIT: BTW the cpu temps are the internal diode temps, the gpu temp was taking with a sensor on the opposite side of the gpu chip

Temps seem great to me. One time i watercooled a geforce3, and I could not get it below 45 c. The more important test is to see how much you can overclock it.
