    Hi guys, I simpy for curiousity sake tested my GPU internal Temp throttling theshold by using Furmark..However..I ran it for 10 mins..... This is was at 1920x1080 resolution....

    I stopped it after 10 minutes because it reached 81 degrees and still didnt throttle...so i didnt want to take any chances of damaging the card. But the whole time it just didnt throttle..

    I remember vividly that before it use to throttle at 79 - 80 area....so I am intrigued by this developement...

    M using the latest bios and Nvidia driver...
