6800nu GPU temp. ???

This might be a no brainer but i thought i'd post it anyway. I was a little worried about the high temp's i was seeing on my new e-VGA 6800nu's GPU, around 58 to 60 celcius idle. I did a few search's but found nothing regarding non ultra cards only GT's and Ultra's. These guy's were lowering their GPU temps by upping their core speeds, so i thought i'd give this a try on my card (325 to350), guess what my idle temp dropped to 47 celcius that's a 14 degree drop, i guess you can call this success

Give it a try, o/c your gpu 25 mhz in both 2D and 3D and see if you temp goes down.
