Whats your 6800GT PCI-Express Temps

    just wondering what temps are people getting with the 6800GT PCI-Express,
    either with watercooling or stock

    mine is on Dangerden NV68 block and its on the same loop from my CPU to the GT then loop to NB then to Rad then to Reservoir and back to the pump again.

    CPU is cool enough since its only OC'ed, 100% load at 47c and the GT at 58c running 3Dmark05, never went over that temp, cant see the NB, not too bad really considering that the house was so warm, looking for a good hardware monitor to see all 3 temps.

    did a bit of messing with the speed but not much differences on the temps really!

    anyone like to share their configuration and temps???

    cheers ;)

    Dont have a 6800 but your temps look fine.
    Have his x800xl so it has a arctic cooler on it, not really looked at temps much but idle its round 30's and i checked once or twice after hrs of ut2k4 and never was much higher but then it prob cools down fast i assume.
    never seen my cpu go over 38, amd 64 3200+ with sp90 and 92mm papst fan.

    I actuall noticed every thing cools better with the rear fan full blast and front at low speed, or maybe the other way round, cant check cause im not at home

    must be rear on full, that will suck all the hot air out and force the front to take in cool air, yea the temp on my is fine I say, just wonder what others are getting.
    mine is on 775 P4 3.4GHz, had it running at 4182MHz and temp was around mid 40s and never went over 58c underload, had the GT running at 440MHz core and 1.14GHz mem, temp on that was around 52c idle and never went over 65c underload either, thats on a hot day, ambient temp was 38c to 41c up and down.

    looks like I might not bother running sli for the summer, as it gonna get hotter inside the case, I tried it with case open, seems to be the same!

    ah well my sli board hasn't turn up yet anyway and I haven't even order the second card and the NV68sli block yet! I leave it to later when the price might drop a bit!
    or I go for the 7series!!!! :)
