Do you know what temperature the GF6 series considers "too hot"? The temp on mine will climb to 60C then drop to 56, then back to 60, like it's doing thermal throttling or something. However, the temperature monitoring utility (provided by nvidia) shows 60C as being well in the "green" area of the graph.
