Its so loud I can hear it playing through my headphones. Why in the world is my GPU temping so high when every other game doesnt get out of the low 70s?

Why is my GPU usge staying pegged at 99%?? There is absolutely NO fluctuation just a straight line. Its not my card, my fan, or my box. Every other game doesnt have this problem.

Do you have the side on your case?? Open case if so that will allow much more fresh air into components. You can also get a small clip fan and clip to case and blow directly onto GPU

It is better to chase the case and chose one with a good ventilator in the side of it where the graphic card(s) is/are installed. An open case is an invitation for trouble because of the quantity of dust going in and there is nothing to stop it. But if you do not have the money for it than by cleaning once a week, remove the inside dust, then the removal of the side panel and maybe putting next to it a home big ventilator why not!

Seeing only ~60c max temp on my Nvidia 465SC with fans at 65%.
Clearly something wrong with your rig m8. Would clean the gpu and add some fans.
Compare your case to this one: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16811156063 (cant beat this case for the money btw)
