MSI GTX 670 PE (not overclocked) running hot!

[TheCowman]

Hey guys! My MSI GTX 670 keeps hitting about 72 degrees celsius when I play games like blacklight retribution. It reaches this temperature after about a minute of playing. On idol it is 8 degrees celsius. I haven't overclocked any of my parts, yet. But I'm worried about breaking my GPU like this. Any help? I'll be willing to post pictures of my PC/set up later.

I higly doubt the card is 8 degrees when idle. 72 degrees is nothing spectacular for a GPU, especially in this weather.

there have your answer ~

For your GPU standard, that temperature is quite good ~

you temps are fine i think 8c is incorrect for idle, don't worrie, and if you want to keep temps lower make a custom fan profile using evga precision or msi afterburner
