XFX 7870 101 C

[SuneFyr]

Is this normal for a 7870 to be 101 C

do i need to take care of it. or is okey for it to be 101

(Fine air cooling and it not OC)(and i have a 850 watt PSU)

No, that is not normal. For how long have you had the card? The safe temp of a graphicscard is usually around 90-95 degress C

Are you using Furmark or Kompuster to stress test the card? I would recomend that you either RMA the card ot change out the thermal paste to see if that helps

 

Edit: And what are you using to monitor temps with?

[Wats]

[mvitkun]

return it or RMA it.

I know we have had some hot weather in Denamrk these last couple of days, but that is still to hot for just running games. As already stated I would recommend you to RMA the card.

It means Return merchandise authorization. Basically it means that you return the card under warranty to the shop where you bought it and they either give you your money back or give you a new card

Well before you do an rma you could always just take the side panel off, replace the thermal paste...increase fan speed.
