    Hey guys, just wanted to hear what you guys are getting as far as GPU temps go?

    I have the 9800M GT and I'm idling at 55-60 Celsius, going up to almost 93 (!) while gaming for any longer than half an hour. I'm a little worried, so I just wanted to check in to see what you guys were getting. Considering doing a thermal paste reapplication if these temps are too high.

    Yes, I'd reapply the paste and clean the vents, fans, grills.

    some methods , include using the cooling fan .

    w860cu's cpu vent is blocked by CLEVO and this is for changing the cooling air way , and to solve the high temp. of other parts (not only the cpu)

    they want to down the temp of board and up the cpu temp , about 5-6 Celsius up .

    and I drop the black block paper from the cpu vent , and using a CoolerMaster U3 pad with 4 fans .

    In MAFIA2 and BATMAN , PhysX supported games , all the effects is medium , 8af , 1080p

    my cpu is 56 Cels , gpu is 60 cels (never over 60)

    I destroy the old cooling air way , use 2 fans for cpu and gpu , strengthen the cpu vent's wind amount.

    and the other 2 fans is vertical to the cpu+gpu vent line ， through the ventages on the D board (bottom)
    they can down the temp. due to the bad design of the w860cu , make the motherboard and some parts cool .
