NVIDIA GTX 470 80c temperature

Maybe try investing in a one or two 120mm fans for the side panel, get some cool air on that gpu, see if that helps.

Have a look here, there's massive selection of fans, you can compare them too.

I wouldn't buy from them though, I'd use amazon personally - free delivery

Some good low cost fans are coolermaster sickleflow's, they are pretty quiet too.

let us know before ya buy though dude,

measure one of the slots on the side, i think its 14cm would definitely recommend one of the awesome fans there, it should be nearly above the card itself

 

[tononoik]

hi wozza, its 13.5 cm wide and just on front of the card. so what do you suggest me to buy? =)

 

[Wozza63]

that should fit a 14cm fan, get the apache of viper depending on which colour you prefer

 

[tononoik]

hi tom, would you suggest me to get 2 fans? i got 2 free slots on the side panel.

 

[Wozza63]

well the second slot is much higher up and would have little effect on the graphics card, the bottom one should be sitting right above the card

 

[tononoik]

alright, thank you bro! shall i buy it from amazon or any other site?

 

[Wozza63]

if you dont mind risking other sites then you can get it slightly cheaper but amazon is a decent price with free delivery and obviously a very good rating

 

[tom_gr7]

what kinda fans do ya want? high performance ones that shift loads of air or semi good one, that shift good amount of air but not as noisy as high performance fans

have a look into coolermaster sickleflows, they 120mm could get blue to match ur case, maybe get a few, two for side or any other slots ya have free. you can find them here http://www.amazon.co.uk/Cooler-Mast...PFCK/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1324409041&sr=8-3

Not sure why you're having this problem. We've got practically identical setups, you've got a better cpu cooler but we have the same case and gpu and looks like the same amount of space around thh gpu and I don't have a problem with cooling it. :S

I do see quite a bit of dust in your case though, is your front fan clogged up? I recently cleaned all my fans out, intake and exhaust fans (just as important). Maybe you should try that first?
