I'm in 25*c ambient right now and the GPU is sitting about 44-46*c idle, altho when in true idle (not browsing or anything) it gets down to 40*c.

Aussie Summers very close, you can already feel it.

Maximums - Asus Z97-K /w i5 4690 Bclk @106.9Mhz * x39 = 4.17Ghz, 8GB of 2600Mhz DDR3,.. Gigabyte GTX970 G1-Gaming @ 1550Mhz

Well, for starters AMD does say that if that card reaches 95°C while gaming, that's perfectly 'normal'.

That's cute mate. Where I live, it usually averages at 46°C in the summer, my GPU reaches 101°C and turns itself off. 

Btw, going to upgrade to a 750Ti soon, to combat the situation...

Humpty Dumpty was pushed.

Your country is much cooler than my country :P
