Re: Time to worry 8800ultra temp
If you have a thermal probe, try attaching it to HSF. Take down the readings without and with load. If you do not have thermal probe, just touch the Heat sink and analyze yourself if it is near the temperature being reported.
If the heatsink is cool, then there is the heatsink interface problem i.e. either no thermal paste/some obstacle or HSF is not in good contact.
If Heatsink is hot, then you need to upgrade your cooling system.
