:swear: i am starting to lead towards a heat issue from my crash problems, but i will let you guys have a look at these 3 pictures i snapped directly after i received a " system has recovered from a serious error" message after my full boot. here they are : http://www.geocities.com/[email protected]/error.JPG http://www.geocities.com/[email protected]/error2.JPG http://www.geocities.com/[email protected]/error3.JPG save picture and zoom if needed, thx hope you guys can get a better idea of my problem with these pictures, please let me know asap thx bunches added note: u know why guys , i think its heat, battlefield 2 gets nowhere around 90C , ut2k4 stays around 70C, doom 3 gets as high as 85C, and FEAR...well, that game is crashing at 98-99C!!! everytime too
Hmmmmmmm, yup this smells of heat a bit Are you serious? Are these the temps that your system reports while playing? Please read this thread - http://www.hardwareforums.com/showthread.php?t=8109 Please read the first reply by Pelvis. What are your temps when idle?
yeah those are the temps of those games while playing : ( my idle gpu temps are core=60-62C ambient=45-46C
Hi Sorry my bad... I thought you were talking about your CPU. Whay don't you search the forum for threads related to GPU temps to see. It sounds extremely hot though...
With those temperatures, it's to be expected. While the GF 6800 does produce a considerable amount of heat, 90*C and above is ridiculous. Check that your heatsink is fitted properly on the Video Card, give your case and all other components a good clean with some compressed air or a brush, and i have to say it - AS5, smear some of that heavenly goop on the video card's GPU and see if it makes a difference!
