this problem im having started about a week ago, i took my videocard out of my pc because i needed to get at a jumper and it was in the way. when i removed the videocard i think i might have pulled to hard and the fan feels loose now. now when i start up my pc the nvidia temperature settings says 29*C ambient temperature and 153*C core temperature. now when i run becnhmarks my score has decreased greatly since i first got my card i was getting 7800 in 3dmark 03 and now im getting 4800. My cards heatsink doesnt even feel hot though yet it says its running at 153*C. could i have damaged the temp sensor somehow and would this cause my videocard to perform worse than when i first got it. And thanks for the help i appreciate it
