Funny, eh? Are we ever over warranty nahhh?I am glad you find this funny. How much did this cost?I do not understand that allusion. Yeah that's right. I think you mean "it's" or "it is" not "its". Really.
over 2 years old its about time he or she guess but sucks to see it go is?

This aint gonna help your GC now, but I added a bunch of fans inside by box so that there is greater air flow. They're pretty cheap and easy to install. Also, if you have fins on your GC's heat sink, then you should blow them clean with a can of air regularly. You'd be amazed at how quick they fill up. Sorry to hear you're down...:frown:

yeah I had plenty of fans but when its blowing air thats about 100 degrees not gonna help. . .fucking pissed me off but next card I get will be happy got my System next to AC and fans to blow in to keep it cool its running like 40 degrees cooler no lie
