I was reading some of the customer reviews and there were complaints that the video card runs at 50 degrees Celsius while idling. Anyone have any experience with this video card? Does it run hot?

If it does run hot what are some alternative video cards to that run cooler and are about the same quality. My price limit is $110.
I have that exact card in the rig in my sig that i would sell.
