Dang! My GPU's up to 77 C! :(

I have a feeling this is just a tad hot, and I do have fans running on max, also. They're also a tad on the noisy side. Just a tad more than usual. I don't guess Flash would do this?

I don't think so You could have a look at your conky what is pulling the most

[dedanna1029]

I don't use conky, but next time I see this I'll check top.

Been watching on XBMC - it's up to 92.0C now.

[viking60]

Yes I guess You have your sinner!

[dedanna1029]

Thing is though, back when it was up to 77.0C, I had just been using flash a lot - hadn't even installed xbmc yet.

My question is this: Is this normal, and safe, when it gets that high running these things? Or is something hardware-wise wrong?

[viking60]

It is to high. Usually that comes from a weak Power supply. And of course you will have to check your fan(s) It can be flash or games, that brings the temp up.

[dedanna1029]

Wouldn't be surprised, really. This one's some 8 yrs old. Ugh...

[dedanna1029]

don't use conky.

I removed your spammy links from the quote. To alert others, when I hit "quote" on this person's post, not only did the post come up, but a signature chalk full of links came up within the quote that I had to remove, so they were either copied/pasted into it, or typed in by hand into the post in an effort to get someone to re-post them. I do NOT appreciate it, particularly when I am on my phone. I will NOT repost that garbage, so I manually removed them. Care to edit your post, spammer so no one else catches it and gives you the trouble you deserve here?

It would also be nice if they'd read viewtopic.php?p=7047#p7047

Thanks.
