GTX 560 TI idle

Hello,
My GTX 560 TI idles around 45-46c and my ambient room temp is about 23c. Does that sound normal, also i oc`ed it and am running a second monitor- fans are at 70% please answer back thanks.

I would be more focused on max temps. Idle temps don't mean too much.

That's only 113F. Warm but not too bad.

Can removing dust from G p u make it 10c less? Or should I not worry about it

If it's half a cm thick yeah. But light surface dust? No.

You would not believe how a thin coat of dust can affect your cooling. Give it a shot of canned air. Take Q-tips and brush off the fan blades then blast it again.
