Alright, So. 

 

Getting back into folding today now that it's cooler out, and I noticed something, after about 30 mins of folding my gpu is stable at 57C. Msi afterburner says that it's at full load, but it has only gone up by about 15 degrees (not that i'm complaining.) 

 

I've got a 290 that is overclocked and watercooled, but when playing games like GTA V it hits around 70C at full load. Is something going on?

 

1st one is temp, whilst 2nd one is load

I would say that is normal. My GTX 660 hovers around 52 degrees sometimes on certain WU's yet others it has nudged 70 degrees before.

As said, F@H doesn't fully utilize GPUs. The fact that you are WC the card is also an important factor here.

 

I'd just chill about it.
