GPU starts out with 52C

Usually my 9600 starts off with 46 so it's climbed almost 10 degrees, according to speed fan it's running 52C. What's the danger range of a 9 series card, isn't it something like 80-90c? And I suppose this is a sign that the card's days are being numbered.

I wouldn't worry about it, 90C is max, 52C is still in the middle of the temperature range and it seems like 60C is common for those cards so you are effectively under normal.

hmmm so Speed Fan is just overeacting.

Alright, thanks Hug.

Any tips on how to identify temp recordings. One of them is 75c (and then some) and according to info out there on AMD Processors (64bit x2 in my case AM2) that's more than enough to cause problems. I mean no doubt my CPU/mobo is probably the problem, suffering from a short circuit and whatever else. But I was curious if there was a simple way to identify temps two of which are characterized with blue arrows.
