ThinkPad T61p idle GPU temperature

Question

I have a very minimal Arch installation with Xfce and only a few daemons. Cpu usage is usally around 5-10%.
The thing is the GPU temperature idles around 60 degrees at WUXGA (1920x1200) resolution. It's an nVidia Quadro FX570M with nvidia driver installed and powermizer working. Is this normal? Is there any way I can decrease it?

Answer 1

That's odd. How about CPU temp? Mine is currently 39 (opera + mpd only), with intensive, but normal usage it never exceeds 50 (however I'm not talking about gaming or compiling, sure it gets hot then).
That's my current sensors output. I'm sitting in quite cold room right now, maybe that's what making few degrees of difference.
