I am curious how hot peoples cards run while mining. I only have 1 6850 ,but it runs pretty cool 70 nights 75 by day. How hot do most multicast systems run?

All the green ones are 5830s, orange and red are 6950s.  You'll notice how the cooling on the 6950s blows, no pun intended.

I have two dual 6970 systems, in computer cases (no side panel.) The bottom one (poor airflow) gets to about 85C, the top one 78C. I run an automated script that downclocks them whenever the temperature gets above 88C.

Ive got 2 6850s (gaming rig) that I've been running 24/7 for the past 3 moths (200W cards) I havent seen the temp get above 68 in my sealed case.
The case itself is amazing tho..Best use of fans/space ive ever seen...and it was <$100

I generally aim for 70* but allow up to 80* before i get worried about anything.
