Temperature problem

Hey guys. I have a problem.
I installed HWMonitor to check temperatures, since I was getting abnormal temps with Afterburner.
Here is a pic..


Who says the truth?

Thank you.

i woudl think ab is right as 77c sounds about right for a 5770 whit the fan on 50%

The strange thing is that if I leave my PC mining for like 30 mins then AB says that the GPU temp is at 84C.. and HWMonitor always 10C in less.

Assume the higher temperature. Running a graphics card at 100% load for even a few minutes will case a lot of heat.

As mentioned above, assume the worst reading is correct.  It's getting hotter than you want it.
At high load, 50% fan doesn't seem to be doing the job.  Get more aggressive with the cooling. (Crank up that fan, for starters)
