Welcome to the team! There really isn't anything special to learn, and no, there aren't any rewards other than donating to a worthy cause. Temps look perfectly fine.
 
Thanks for the answers :D But i wanna know what the max temps are i should run because at night 100 percent fanspeed is just a bit loud ;)
 
ok thanks, i think its not that good to let reference gtx 260s without any mods fold :D because they are getting up to around 95 degrees at 100% fanspeed

Take the side of of the case and place another fan blowing on your card and see how that works...

If you are folding 762x WUs they fold very hot....

The newer Core 17 WUs fold much cooler but require Fermi or newer cards
