Hey :)

My Evga gtx 1060 6gb Graphics card idles at about 63C is that to hot for idling?

Maybe there is a way i could keep the fan on auto but make it so the must always run at least xxxrpm then incress on that if needed. 

Fan noise doesn't bother me.

 

Thanks

71C isn't a bad temp for a gaming load. You're doing fine but you can raise the idle fan speed to lower the heat a bit.

A lot of the new cards have the stupid 0rpm fan feature. So id install a program and control the fan even at idle. Letting the card bake is pointless. My cards never seen 60 even under full load. Regardless of the series, minus my hot ass 1080 strix.

I use a less aggressive curve but if it works for you, it works.
