this sucks. I guess the fan on the GPU broke. |
| General Nick:
While on the subject of overheating and smoke; Is 66 degrees celsius a safe temperature for a graphics card, specifically a 9800GT? I was playing TF2 (Jcink's server ftw), and all of a sudden my TF2 froze and the image went blank. I alt tabbed and found a little notification in the corner: "Display Driver nvlddmkm has stopped working and has fully recovered." I quickly opened up EVGA Precision and found my graphics temperature at 66 Celsius climbing down. I know nvlddmkm is the main driver file for Nvidia cards, and I've seen this happen before, but is my graphics overheating or is it just overworked? |

Seeing as I have no idea who you are, then that must mean that truly was an almost complete absence. That really sucks about the graphics card =\ |
