Right, ever since i moved into my new apartment im having some major heating issuse with my entire PC.
But my main concern at the moe is that my x800 pro (club one flash to XT PE) is getting so hot that im starting to get display errors. It getting stupidly hot, so hot you unable to touch it after powering down the PC.
The main reason for this is that my new apartment is very warm, even when all the heating is off. Its a old mill and im on the top floor and basicly get all the heat from the whole building.
What can i do to fix this quickly? I know people will say "Buy a new Fan" but ive never looked into the gfx card cooling side of things as ive never really overclocked my gfx cards.
Also i take the side off my case to try and let it get cooler, but i think this is causing a problem. I have a huge 120mm Delta fan on my CPU (with a XP-120 heatsink) and when on full it blows out lots of cold air, i think with the side panel on it used to keep the gfx card a little cooler - nothing major but i think it may have helped a little?
