What is a safe temp for my ZOTAC GeForce GTX 550 Ti

[kogo50]

I built my new PC a few months ago and its running great. Can run any game I want on the highest settings and never lags. My problem is that the video card temp is kind of worrying me. We I have a single monitor running and the PC is idle it is at about 40C. We I added my second monitor it jumped up to 56C with just firefox open. When playing games like Crysis 2 it goes up to about 76C. The fan is on auto and on idle it runs at 30%. We I play a game it goes to 45%. I also have a intake fan blowing directly on the video card. Also I notice that the video card always goes straight to 100% load on any game I play, even minecraft. I'm not sure if these temps are normally or are they high? Can anyone help me?

Those temps are perfectly fine.Nothing to worry about.The temps rose when you added the 2nd monitor because it has to work a little harder to display 2 images on seperate screens.

If you want to make your temps lower just increase the fan speed but it will get louder.
