    My D901C use CPU E6750 idle maybe 33C

    but my Video card Temperature so high ,,,7950 GTX

    play Unreal Tournament 3 VGA Card temperature

    Card first (Bios view mother By the side of the CPU) 75C

    Cad second (bios view Daughter card) 60C


    This is why?

    Why does the first temperature compare the second high?

    Is this phenomenon normal?

    You are also such of temperature?

    Well he is not far off with his CPU Temps. I have the NP9260, same as the one he has. My room temperature is around 76 to 77 degrees. My CPU Idles around 39 with cores around 34. My 7950GTXs idle at 44 and 41.

    The reason you have one card with higher temps is because one of them almost sits in the middle of the chassis and does not get as much ventilation as the one sitting on the edge.

    Now Salivaxiu, here is how you get your Cards temp to go down. Raise your computer from the back about an inch and the front about ½ to ¾ of an inch and watch your Temps go down about 10 degrees. When I first installed my second card I was idling at about 51 degrees. So I figured it is a ventilation problem; got me four small pieces of wood cut them about an inch and half wide and 2 of them an inch high and the other two ¾ of an inch high, then I put them right next to the feet of the laptop and the Temps dropped down almost 10 degrees. I made four metal risers for my laptop and I simply clamp them to the feet of my beast. I can upload some pics if anyone would like to get an Idea of how I did it. Helps keep everything a lot cooler. Hey it works much better than any notebook cooler out there.

    I know I write in English, but sometimes it sounds like Chinese.. and even I have a hard time understanding what I wrote.. :D
