Hi my graphics card (eVGA 6800gt) is overheating like crazy. Its idle temp is 70c, and plays games at 100c-120c. The threshold is 135, but only age of empires 3 exceeds that. I managed to play Oblivion for six hours one day, and it didnt ever reach the threshold.
I was thinking about updating the drivers, or getting a new GPU fan (an arctic silencer, i heard they work).
My friend has talked to people, and they said that the 6800 is a hot chip in general, and that eVGA is a bad brand. Too bad he didnt tell me before i bought it ;( .
I could use any good info, thanks.
