Thanks mate :D

will buy ssd when it will get cheap :p too much costly...

@ Jackell - can you post the idle and load temp of your gpu or else a review would be great on review section of the forum.

Which application need to use for it?

Which application can monitor my CPU and GPU temp from my desktop?

Which application will be good for benchmarking? (Without damaging my card :p )

use hwinfo fr cpu, gpu temp and volt monitoring.

for benchmark use 3DMark 11, DiRt 3, Metro 2033, Crysis 2, Unigine Heaven, AvP 2010 etc.

^^ if it's idle gpu temp then it's a bit on the higher side - post the load gpu temp.

@ Jackell - 70-72c is within safe zone - if you want lower temps try increasing your fan speed manually - your gpu fan speed under load is currently only 53% acc to the pic - so there's lots of room left to bring down the gpu temp more and even for OCing too.

Thanks top:p

But how to do this? (Increase fan speed and overclock)

use this :
*event.msi.com/vga/afterburner/
or this ;-)
EVGA | Software | EVGA Precision

It is safe, that is you overclock it in a limit with right settings :). Go step by step, with small memory, shader, clock speed increments. Follow some gpu oc guides and always keep monitoring your temps.

another tip is - don't play with volt settings if you are not comfortable and you will be on safer side always - don't even think about running furmark even for once.

Ok :)

Yes I read 2 threads about furmark testing and GPU was dead :(

I will not think to download also :p

And I have bought 2 fans as you said 120MM and 80MM for side panel but those both need to be exhaust or intake or exhaust and intake to keep GPU normal..

Coz 2day while playing Batman AC GPU temp reached to 77c at one time. (I have increased Fan speed using afterburner and ideal temp for GPU is 45c now :) )

if you are referring to the side panel - you can install one 120mm fan at bottom part and one 80mm fan on the upper side.

Dude received both fans but one issue upper fan was 90mm :( but attached it in other holes :p

But I dont understand which side is for intake and for exhaust ..?

there are arrow markings on the fan ( look very carefully ) to indicate the air flow direction and for CM fans the silver color hologram type label side is usually for intake ie if you place the fan as side intake make sure you can see the silver colored label from outside and the half white and half black label side is for exhaust.
