Heat issues with Gigabyte GTX 560 (Non ti)

Hey there,

I got this card recently and its been great... except for some heat issues.

At idle it stays in the lower 40C. However, on load it has gone upto 89C. I think this is a bit too high for a card that has a custom cooler.

My room temp is about 30c.

Any advise on what i should do? i have added some extra fans but failed to lower the temps.

my only gripe is the max temp. Even with the fan at 100% it fails to keep the card cooler at around 70-75C.

any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

Your fans are spinning the right way, yes?

You could download & install MSI Afterburner, which would allow you to set your own profile for GPU fan speeds. How does it look inside your case? Are the case fans dusty?topsemag55

Your room temp is 30c? That's very high imo and i think you should lower it to at least 25, my room is 20-22c.Guovssohas

How can you live with 30 degrees innertemp? :P I have around 18 degrees. Though I guess you live somewhere much warmer.spittis

I'm thinking of removing the heatsink to make sure thermal paste is applied correctly by the factory. is it a good idea?

30C room temp? O_O

Mine is about 15C, my 480s love it :P

with room temp like that 89C seems a bit high but within reason In summer when room temp is 30-32C my gtx460 hits 82-85C
