Overheating trouble

[Old Bear]

Tonight have a problem with overheating. First VPU recover starts in middle of BF2. To chk what's hapening started FEAR EP. Overheat message after some 10 minutes of running. Started ATItool, temps was over 80, while fan is set to 100% for over 65deg. When 3d wiev is opened temps goes to 90 in about a minute. Have to chk airflow as CCC mesage say, but have to change that stock cooler for sure! Any suggestions about cooler?

Your talking about the X1800XT in your sig right? It is overclocked for sure, might wanna set it down a little until you get a different cooler, or one of these night you might be playing and it frys on ya.

This (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16835118001) one is quite good. Many people have it, and say that it drops there temps well. A little pricy, but maybe if you do some better searching you can find something as good for cheaper.

:P

Thanks for reply & info. I've set clocks at defaults at once but temps are stil at 60 (doing nothing), will take care for few days untill I get something. Shipping from newegg doesn't cover EU, right? My friend is hardware importer, gonna visit him soon:laugh:
Or pt, as he allways wanted to go far away (quoted pt), does home delivery & gets to Belgrade:laugh:
Thanks all!
