Looks like a great rig. What sort of temps do you get?

 

[FTLN]

Gpu Idles around 75c Cpu around 50c with fans on slow

Gpu maxes out around 90c and the cpu around 70c

Can't wait to see what the 480 looks like with both on

isn't that a little bit too high?

Wow those are very hot temps. You may want to check to see if everything is mounted properly and the fans are working.

The extremely High idle temps are caused by dual monitor config on 480.. 480 is unable to downclock core/mem due to memory incompatability... I have just stuck in a old 8800gt for the second monitor and now idle temps are low 50's....
