phen0L Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 is 45C under load hot for this card? i will be playing css for about an hour or so and my cpu will lock up and restart.. I have a 3ghz oc with no voltage increases but it passes orthos just fine, doesnt get hotter than 50C at load. Trying to narrow down this issue. Any help is appreciated.

pie Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 45C is fine. I don't think its your graphic card. If it's locking up and restarting, it has to be something else. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingdingeling Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 What voltage is your RAM at? That might be the problem Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jammin Posted February 26, 2008 Posted February 26, 2008 Remember Orthos doesn't test your graphics sub system, so gaming can introduce new factors for instability. And when you say it passes Orthos, how long are you running it for? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
iKillSteal Posted February 26, 2008 Posted February 26, 2008 3GHz on a 2160 with no voltage increase!? My 2140(granted it has a lower multi) wouldn't do 2.9 without at least 1.55v and I've read about 2160's and 2180's requiring a fair voltage bump to get that high. How long did you run orthos to determine its stability? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
