    i have a bfg 6800gt core=400mhz memory=1gighz right now while not gaming it runs about 65 degc during gaming it goes up to around 73 degc. is this an ok temp for my card or do u think removing the heatsink and cleaning off the factory paste and adding some arctic silver would help. just wondering. thanks

    Adding arctic silver 5 would help a tad, not much though.

    You would want to invest into an Arctic Cooling NV5 HSF for better cooling (is it the NV5? or NV6?)
