103 is actually a fine temperature. Just try to not let it surpass 160-190 or something

If its Fahrenheit then that's a cold temperature for a GPU.

That isnt really bad
I would be concerned if it was at like 70c. But my computer ran at 103 Fahrenheit on idle and didn't have an issue

hodototman · December 01, 2013, 10:51:54 PM

Congratulations, you can now boil water on your GPU! ;)

Anyway, IDK, that's really hot. My GPU never seems to get above 60 Celius...

In the original op he did not say it was celcius..

And check to see how much your PSU is supplying to your card, and how much energy your card requires

I'd suggest taking a look to see if your graphics card's cooling system is working properly.
Then again, nVidia cards have always had the tendency to climb to excessive temperatures. And yes, I've used nVidia cards. I'd know this.

Mine goes up to 50c and 60c (According to Speedfan), but my GPU's max temperature is like 99c.
I gotta get my liquid cooling installed.
