this caused by overheating? the card is running at 61C idle. that too hot, could i solve the problem by changing the cooler on the board? it currently has a stock cooler with heatpipes or something, im not too sure.

try it without the side of the case on first, monitor how much the idle temp drops by
although it could be the ram on the card...

I hope it's not an ASUS X850XT... you'll have loads of fun trying to get an RMA on that.

61 idle is hot for an x850, but it does look like the memory on the card has gone/is going if its like that just in windows. 
darnit
its started showing sometimes in bios as well.
i`ve left the side off the case for a couple days and temps havent changeed really. sticks between 55 and 62.
its the third card recently to die on me. a 6800pro, a 800pro and now this.
wasting money!
would a new zalman cooler maybe fix it?

Don't think its a good sign if is starting in the BIOS to, as the card won't even be used then as theres no drivers loaded in etc...

That's as likely as an applebred duron 1600 outgunning a conroe, and should be treated with the same contempt that such a claim would warrant. note to woodster one ought to be VERY careful as to what one writes in relation to defamtory comments regarding individuals and / or companies.
back on topic to the OP I seriously think it's borked ram mate sorry to say, corruption in bios couldn't really be much more.
( as no OS or system drivers are launched at this point can only be a hardware fault with either MB or GPU and I'm 99.9999 % certain it's ram )
