i bought a new graphic card about 1 month ago.
replace my Geforce 8400 GS with a new Nvidia Geforce 210 by Gigabyte.
I started to working and learning about 'Overclocking'.
I overclock my CPU successfully with no error's yet about 2 weeks ago.
and,i overclock my GPU. using the EVGA Precision Software,i did this:
Core Clock:610
Shader Clock:1452
Memory Clock:830.
Fan Speed: 100.

What i'm really worry about is..
the result:
The GPU Temperature:50+ (During Desktop) 60+ Can go to 69! (During Gaming)
The GPU Usage: 0(During Desktop) 99! (During Gaming)
The Fan Speed: 100.
The Fan Tachometer:10000+!

Is It Normal? What Should i do if it wasn't?
I'm Using ORTHOS Temp Sensor Software,i set the Warning limit to 70 On GPU.
When it goes 60 or above,it shows a Scary fire icon beside it, i know i set it all by myself,but,
That icon really freakin me out! @@

69'C when gaming is very NORMAL, don't worry about that.
Note that running fan at 100% for long term can reduce the card lifespan...
Also, OCing GT210 is USELESS, it's not even a gaming card, really. If you want to gaming then start with GT240 minimum...

Not to say,but f1 2010 looks pretty awesome with g210.
btw.thanks for ur info.Really appreciated it.
So,What should i do about the fan speed? turn it to normal or re-configure it?
 
Just try configure fan with 80% or 70% and see the temps...

Take a look at this comparison:
http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/Inno3D/GeForce_210/

You can see the other pages of that link, it shows that card isn't good enough to play "heavy" games on big monitor (big resolution).
