MackTheKnight Posted January 20, 2011 Posted January 20, 2011 Has anybody out there with a TH2Go setup noticed that their idle GPU temps are higher than they were without TH2Go running? Just curious, as on my GTX570 my temps originally idled at 40-45C. After I got TH2Go up and running they now idle at 67-69C. Of course my fan speed is running noticeably louder to keep things cool as well, which can be slightly annoying in certain circumstances. I'm wondering if this is normal when running TH2Go or if I've screwed something up with my drivers... My vitals, if they help.

Silent Warrior Posted January 22, 2011 Posted January 22, 2011 All I know to say about it is that your hardware will naturally have to work harder outputting to three monitors in such a high resolution as compared to one monitor with maybe a third of that resolution. In THAT sense, higher idle temperatures are perfectly understandable, but I wouldn't know how much higher they have any reason to be.
