    Feckin BS...

    I hate this piece of shet gfx card.

    I now run my comp open-case, my gfx card is UNDER clocked at 350mhzcore/450mem and I still get random heat related restarts playing games.

    STAY AWAY FROM THE saphhaire X800GTO. Fact.

    Holy crapo. I gotta try that.

    My card after playing Oblivion gets to 93C

    That's when the comp gives me the blue screen of death and restarts.
