When I got my PC at the beginning of last year, my 6800GT was running at 52 and at 65 on load. Now those temps have gone up by 10 degrees! I don't see why though? The climate hasn't changed, I've had a new fan installed (2 now) I clean it often...Yet the temp has still climbed...Any suggestions?

make sure your pulling cold air in from the bottom of the case and blowing the hot air out the back at the top of the case.

Yeah, that's the fan setup I have.

Try changing the power plug to the board, maybe the one your using is connected to other stuff and not giving the card enough juice.
