    I have two 8800 GTs in my system, both running the fans at 100%... And their temps are 60°C and the other at 68°C. This seems all but ridiculous considering the fans are set all the way up, and they're idle to boot. Does this seem normal or should I be worried?

    wait so there constantly at 100% after boot up? they shouldn't be really, consider giving the graphics cards a quick clean, they collect dust pretty fast.

    They're 100% because I set them to be at 100% by default. The cards are dustless, they're practically new.

    ok so your worried about the graphics cards temps

    Graphics cards are meant to withstand much higher temps 90-100°C I believe so you should be fine.
