Greetings
I recently bought an eVGA 7900GT SuperClocked (GPU 600Mhz / RAM 800Mhz / coper Heatsink) from ebay. I think there might be a problem with this card. At idle the card is about at 56 Celsius with 35 C amdient temp.But at full load the cards goes up to 100-102 C.Even with the air conditioner turn on (room temp about 26 C) the cards goes to 100 C .I have removed and re-installed (twice) the heatsink with Arctic Silver on the core and and Arctic Ceramic on the RAM.Same resolts. The PC case has 2 * 8cm fans on the front @ 1800rpm and 2 * 8 cm fans on the back @ 1600rpm. I don`t think that the card should reach so high temps.
Could you please inform me if there is indeed a problem ?
