 |  Max temp for a x1950gt? My x1950gt gets to 95c degrees under full load  I just want to know what temp it will start being dangerous of my computer I think it needs new paste so when i can get a really small screwdriver i will put some on. idles 50 - 55 Edit: When i say full load i mean things that actually use the card, games like 1.6 or gunbound are 60c max

| Re: Max temp for a x1950gt? not dangerous but it is a bit toasty.i would clean dust and stuff out of the heatsink and possibly reset the whole thing with some fresh thermalpaste

| Re: Max temp for a x1950gt? The card isn't that dusty :/ When i usually clean it, it drops about 2 degrees paste is almost gone so I'm pretty sure thats the reason

 | Re: Max temp for a x1950gt? wow...95C! The card can take it, but if you want it to last, do what gurusan said. And if you can, add in a side intake fan or get an aftermarket cooler to help cool the card even further. |
