Yep. Ignore everything everyone says and you'll be fine.

I cant tell if this is sarcasm or not.

It's somewhere in between, but I have an nVidia graphics card too and haven't had any problems mining.

Like I said, you should be fine.

Don't worry about this. Your graphics card should automatically adjust it's settings so it doesn't overheat. Unless you overclocked it.

From the look of your specs, you should be able to mine. What rate you will mine will be unknown until you actually start mining.
Wait a minute, how would it adjust itself to the point where it doesn't overheat?

The only problem with nVidia cards is just that you have a bigger chance of lose more than what you get.

Your graphics card might lower the memory and/or core clock and heighten the fan speed (if it has one).

I can live with that.

But in all seriousness, you will need a Bitcoin miner and to join a pool. I suggest BitMinter.

Edited that.

How do I get into a Mining Pool?

Downloaded the bitcoin mining thing, it says Synchronizing with Network.
What is it doing?

Synchronizing with Network.

I tried to mine, and while using bitminter, I went to speedfan and it said my GPU temperature was at 50C.
Great.

Whaa?

I left my computer on mining all night and didn't reach those temperatures.
