It's ghetto, but you can probably get a 20 degree drop on your card by keeping the case open and making a cardboard and duct tape funnel in combination with whatever computer or non-computer fans you have around (I'm using a USB laptop cooler pad on one system).
If your case already has a fan on the side, you can probably build a funnel to meet up exactly where the fan is when the panel is on.
If you don't believe me, google "computer air funnel".

Here Also 81°C (Sensor 0) Core 800 Mhz, Load 97% , Fan 50%
Might 81°C be a Problem ? The Temp goes up to 90° when using 900 Mhz at same Fan Speed.
Fan is too loud for > 50% while sitting in front of the machine.
CPU Temperature: +47.0°C (high = +60.0°C, crit = +95.0°C)
MB Temperature: +58.0°C (high = +45.0°C, crit = +95.0°C)

No AC. Window is open, 70 F here.
Don't know why it's going so high. Will fans bring down temperature?

concerned ? you should be concerned ALWAYS. thats way IT things done.
but seriously, try drop temps about 10'C.
did you have air conditioner ?

I just purchased a used ASUS 5870. The issue i am seeing is that in GPU-Z there are three censors.
GPU Temperature - 81.0 C
GPU Temp. #1 - 81.0 C
GPU Temp. #2 - 102.5 C
GPU Temp. #3 - 86.0 C
I'm running the card at 889 gpu / 375 memory. I'm a little concerned about the 2nd gpu temperature. Is it a faulty temperature reading or would it be the heatsink coming off?
I'm getting 370Mh/s with this setup. The fan is on 44%. I can push the fan to 100% and GPU to 920 and get about 400Mh/s.
I think i need more fans in my system. I have an old dell. Right now the side cover is exposed so i'm considering buying extra case fans to increase ventilation.
But that doesn't discount the fact that sensor #2 is almost 20 C higher than the GPU temperature.
Should i be concerned?
