Hello there.>>>GT 640 2gb<<< .As i checked a couple days ago i saw that my gpu idle temp is 40-42( in winter it's 35), but day or two after i checked i realized that my gpu temperature rised for 10C. from 40 to 50 and was even going 55C sometimes. I know that u will start asking me question about should i do, but i will tell u:
1st. I opened the computer case and cleaned it from dust( there wasn't much)
2nd. After i cleaned it i didn't see any result, i mean temperature fall.
3rd. After that i thought it may be the thermal paste, but i did renew it.
4th. I didn't see any difference again.
5th. I opened the pc case to see if my temp will fall down. But again, with my pc case opened the temperature of the gpu remained the same. Im very pissed because i can't solve the problem.
My friend has the same gpu as me and i asked him if he can check his temperature and said his gpu temp is 35C on idle, it's 15c difference. I appreciate any help.

And i forgot, i have the latest version of the driver. I installed older version to see if that's the problem but nothing is happening.
 
Hello... Place a fan next to the GPU card then... the fan on the Video card will wear out first on most Video cards... it's the only way to remove the heat... give it some help. I understand the money problem... but the poor GPU is doing a lot of work to keep up with your life style. B )
 
So you think the fan is the problem? Would 85c be a problem for the next months?
Also my dad thinks it's because of the room temperature, and gpu fan can't handle.
