hi is 64 degrees Celsius high for my r7 260x gpu?

 

[Secondmineboy]

Nope, that nothing.

An r9 290x or r9 295x2 Can get up to 95 degrees. My GPU is easily on 85 degrees.

 

[BoraMurdar]

64 degrees is quite fine

@BoraMurdar @Secondmineboy Any recommendations to help bring the core temp. down?

 

[Razor555]

If you are not doing anything GPU intensive, i would say that's a little high temps you got there.
Blow out some dust will sure help drop those temps down. Or even if you know how to remove the heatsink and apply a fresh thermal paste will help greatly drop those temps down.

@BoraMurdar @Secondmineboy Any recommendations to help bring the core temp. down?

Aftermarket GPU Cooler. Rajintek and Noctua make good ones...

 

[Valentin N]

when do you get that temp?

what wasn't mentioned is that you can lower the voltage.

 

[Vasudev]

Try installing MSI afterburner and decrease clock speeds. Can you disable turbo boost? Check for driver updates and BIOS updates (optional).

That should be normal at moderate stage, try to setup your computer on another location where the environment will contribute for increasing/decreasing the temperature but the ATI r7 260/x have a nature of range about 60's Degree Celsius +.
