msi nx6600gt temperature

[wsea]

The idle temp of my msi nx6600gt is 55C. After running few minutes on Prince of Persia, it goes up to 69C. The idle temp is kind of high. Is this normal?

I have 2 of the cards running in SLI, my top one (the one closer to the CPU) burned out twice. no OCing, just playing Area 51, and the game froze all of a sudden. Then after the restart I had artifacts in 3D games. So now I don't even close my sidepanel anymore, until I can find a better cooling solution, which is just as quiet.

That's normal, I have the same MSI NX6600GT and my temps are the same. Idle 54-56c, load 68-70c.
