Forgive me for being slow, but...

Your video card is running 50C hotter than your CPU?
That seems a tad extreme to me.

How are you monitoring this?

yeah, holy shit, maybe theres something wrong with your temperature measuring device

Ok wouldnt there be something defective with his card? It being 100 Celcius???? Isnt that too hot even if it is in a small case..I dont see how that mould make so much difference anyways. I think theres just something about his card runnin way to fast or something.

im using a genuine coolermaster fan on my cpu, which somehow does a good job of keeping my cpu from overheating

the hot air is rather localized, probly a dead spot in the case. im using the thermoprobe which was built into the chip

those readings are VERY true&#33;

I don&#39;t care how you monitor your CPU.

How are you reading temp on the video card?

my card&#39;s fine&#33; im pumping 100+fps on ut2003 with 4xfsaa enabled&#33;

and not too many people would consider a card running too fast as defective.



and one last thing, the default temperature threshold is 109°c, and it wont melt until it hits 120°c

so im not worried about the card, im worried about my room&#33;(and the plexiglass shell on the outside of the case

well one, what is a lan party, and two i think your only choice as of now is drilling a hole near the card with an out take fan, clocker i believe you knwo plenty of this

lan party: a "party" where everyone brings their comp to a specified location and connect it to a network in order to have a zero-latencey kickass game of:

--halo
--ut2003
--generals

and the list goez on

That temp doesn&#39;t look so unreasonable and certainly doesn&#39;t account for your "easy bake oven" phenomenon...
