wow in the 80's? mind you is that farenheit or celcius, cause if that is 80 deg celcius that needs checking. its either inaccurate or very very hot.
if its farenheit, im not sure what 80deg far is but im sure its a lot healthier than 80 celcius

My CPU runs so hot that you hurt your fingertips if you leave it on for over 5 seconds.

If its 80C, its alright for your X1900GT. Thats a normal operating temperature for that chip, don't worry, it was manufactured to run at that temperature. Normal operating temperatures differ from card to card.

aaah video card temp? i thought he meant cpu temp
i have a 7600gt nvidia card that idles at 59deg and under stress can get close to 80. so not so bad after all

hey guys, thx for the replies. yes it is 80 deg C. should have been more clear about that. thx again. was considering some extra cooling, but if that card is meant to run that warm, I guess Im ok. mtw ftw!

Hmmmm i bet you can cook something on that cards
You ask for steak, I bring you fish. You say that you think steak is better than fish. I say that fish is much more popular than steak so obviously it's better. You say that no matter how good the fish is it can't be better at being steak than the actual steak we used to serve. I say that's just your perception and you're entitled to it but you should accept that fish is the future and that's good. You begin to say something but I stab you in the eye with a fork and run into the kitchen.
