Vanishing ice Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 Just wanna ask is it normal. According to some posts on Hackintosh, it seems to be way too hot than normal. It's stable so far, but I would like to see if I need to do something to make my system safe. My config as follow: Below is my config: Gigabyte GA-x79-UD5 w/ 3930K CPU Zotec HD-6870 display card 64GB ram Corsair 240GB SSD Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/288648-hd-6870-over-60-degree-celsius-even-when-idling/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

seltsam23 Posted May 28, 2013 Share Posted May 28, 2013 Same here! My 6870 is quite warm as well. I don't really care about the heat itself, I just would love to test if idling is working properly. If it is working properly and it's still warm - so be it. So, is there a good way to check for Mountain-Lion if idling-mode for the GPU works?
